Gingerbread Houses and Cheesecakes







taking time out to meet cousins at the Cheesecake Factory...... My cousin, Jo (guess which one) ,and I see each other as much as possible. My son and his daughters joined me to see Jo and her neices. Goose the little one, sang non-stop Christmas carols entertaining us all. It was fun. It is also nice being teachers and having time off.
The other picture is of Doodle and I making gingerbread houses at her school. Today is her last day. Doodle is my surrogate granddaughter. I have watched her since she was a mere 6lbs. We have a very special realtionship.

Another son flies in tomorrow. He only gets home once a year. It will be so much fun spending time here with him and his sweet family.
Christmas is such a special time.
And it isn't about one day of the year, it is about the "season", the "reason" and the "feelings". It is a COZY time for sure.
Christmas (((((HUGS))))) to you all.

Hi Debby! I so love your photos of winter. It's hot and humid here in Houston. :o) Thank you so much for linking to my tea party!

I love the family photos! How fun! It looks like you have a very happy family. :o)

BTW, the link you did doesn't link back to your website or post, I'm afraid.

You can always try again. I think the wrong html address got typed in somehow. I usually just copy the web address from the browser for posts when I join linky parties and then paste them into the linky program. I am so grateful you joined me. I was beginning to be afraid I wasn't going to ever get anyone to join the party. :o) Your photo was lovely!

Merry Christmas Debby!
