Merry Christmas…

I just wanted to take a moment to wish you all a Merry Christmas. My dinner is almost done, and my family and I are getting ready to settle down to a well-earned Christmas feast. After that, it’s hot chocolate, eggnog, and the final stretch of 24 Hours of “A Christmas Story”. It’s been nothing less than a perfect Christmas.

Here’s hoping that you and your loved ones had a blessed day. And here’s to an even happier New Year.

Before I go though, I wanted to share some photos from Christmas morning around Chez Dizzy. You can click on the images for a bigger version.

I bought my son the Family Guy Blue Harvest Special Collector DVD set. It came with a t-shirt, collector cards, a set of 3-D glasses, and a booklet. He was stoked. Yes…I’m a very bad mother. :)

A closeup of our very bling Christmas tree. After two years of the same silver and glass decorations, my husband has vowed for a traditional tree. But I love my blingy disco balls!

I’m the world’s biggest “Christmas Story” fan. My husband knows this, and he also knows that I’ve decided to start a Christmas village, so he bought me my very first village piece. This is the Bumpus house, you know – Ralphie’s hillbilly neighbors with the dogs. Love it. Next up…Ralphie’s house!

The Christmas story movie was shot in cleveland. The house has been renovated and they give tours and sell leg lamps. Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year.
