I’ve been off work for 6 1/2 days for the Christmas holiday. These photos sum up my days. I am one blessed girl.

Our family obviously considers the dogs an important part of the family. These photos span two separate gatherings and dogs are welcome.

Ok, the photo of the cats is at home. But they were part of our family celebration.

My favorite photo is the one of Zekie sitting on grandma’s lap on Christmas Day. He went along because we are in the process of treating some anxiety issues and it was too long a time for him to be alone. More on those issues when we have a resolution. But since Zeke was with us, he was well behaved (mostly) and enjoyed being part of the day. And I was certainly more relaxed knowing he was safely with us. Understanding families are a blessing too!
