Christmas-izing

The tree is up, as well as my village. I am rather upset with myself for the sloppy way I packed away my porcelain village pieces a few years ago; I had to whip out the glue gun, and my little ski resort was not repairable.

The kitties are in the Christmas spirit, as you can see by these pictures. ;-) So

far they are "respecting" the tree, but my expectations are rather low. Howie had a blast with the big empty tree box. He'd jump in and dash to the tub, jump in, then dash back to the tree box. LOL Zoe kicked around a small branch that had fallen off the tree

 as if it was a soccer ball. Needless to say the furballs had a

 blast.

 As we were finishing up, Kim and Chris came over for our traditional viewing of "Christmas Time in South Park" and we all

 pigged out on summer sausage, cheddar cheese, Ritz crackers and peanut M&Ms. YUM!
