"After--Christmas" at G's House

When the last bite of dinner has been consumed, the last drink turned over, the very last present opened, and the stockings emptied...what is left of Christmas?  






When the decorations are "old news" and Christmas is 364 more days away...what is there to do? 

Why, "After-Christmas" activities, of course. 
Like...
Trailer Tipping   or
pine needle sledding off Pudding Hill!

After all, even Santa needs some R&R. 

I found his boots, hat and empty bag on my front porch...and a receipt for a Jet Blue flight to Bimini. 

Behold, children are a gift of the Lord.  Psalm 127:3

Indian Summer Fishing

"Indian summer is a period of unseasonably warm, dry weather that sometimes occurs in autumn in the Northern Hemisphere," so says Wikipedia. So it was at the end of November at G's house.  A good time to go fishing.

Never mind that the clouds looked a bit threatening.
We were ready.        

  
Some of us might have gotten a bit distracted.
But not for long. Success! 
Enjoyed the beauty of the day...
And the company!

Behold, children are a gift of the Lord.  Psalm 127:3
