Merry Christmas Eve

Mr & Mrs Claus

Joey and Julia, with Mr and Mrs Claus in front of Corning Glass Works, glass oranament Christmas tree.

Please, Mom Please

All I want is some of your ice cream.............I'm just licking my chops, thinking about it. Lapping it up, and making my tongue so cold.............

But Mom says NO! My little doggie heart is broken.............

Not chocolate anyway. Go see dad, his isn't chocolate. He has cherry vanilla! You can have that! So Billy went over to his Dad and got some of his ice cream. Moral of the story? Don't put on your sad doggie puss, there just may be another offer!

Hand Blown Ornaments

Just look at these beautiful hand blown ornaments, my daughter and her family made recently! They went to Corning Glass Works, and decided to try out their artistic abilities. The round ones were made by Joey and his dad, the teardrops were done by Julia and her mom!

Here's Joey trying to blow all his air into the molten glass.

Now, it's Julia's turn. Their Dad was there to help. Pretty neat huh?

Silent Sunday - In A Bed Of Snow

Did You Know Santa Rides This?

You betcha Santa rides a horse! Maybe he visited Marilla Primary, recently on his horse, because there was no snow on the ground. This is Joey and Julia, my Grandchildren, from East Aurora NY. I wouldn't be surprized if they enjoyed Santa more on a horse, then in a sleigh!

Even More Ice Cold Buddies

Our light up Frosty,

On top of kitchen cabinets,
And above bar cabinets, I really don't know how many snowmen I own, but if I still had them all, I would not have room for them in this house!

So Which Way Is Out

I was wrapping gifts the other day at my dining room table. Billy was trying to get close enough to see what I was doing. He started whining, because he couldn't get to me. You see, this pointsettia plant was in the way. Now mind you, all he had to do, was turn around and go back the way he came. But no...........I just let him be, and he finally found an opening beside the plant, and got to see what I was up to. He really loves Christmas! He knows that he will have some sort of special treat left under the tree. He has already been sniffing around the tree...........looking and hoping. But dogs, like kids, don't understand time. But they sure have great memories!

Rum Buddy Party

Remember these two Ice Cold Buddies? I just happened to get up during the night, cause I heard a lot of noise going on, out on the lanai.

Here is what I found! These guys were making all kinds of racket and just drinking away! See that rum bottle? Well.........it is empty! Wow! I wonder what Ralph will think when he finds out all his rum is gone? They sure had better get to the Packy, and replace it soon! (At least they used the snowman glasses.)
Not only that, but one of their friends was in the living room, dancing away to Christmas music! He is saying, "Oh No, we got caught"! I'll tell you, something is always waking me up here! First it could be sirens, or the dog, thunder, or it might be one of my kids, er BOYS, calling me at whatever hour. I NEVER suspected my "Ice Cold Buddies" would become a part of my loss of sleep!

Don't worry, I have warned them all, that if they don't behave, they will have to stay in the storage boxes next year!
