Christmas dinner

... a bit late. On Christmas, Julie and I celebrated snuggled warmly in our house while a blizzard dropped two feet of snow. We finally left the house to drive the 300 yards over to Jim and Kathy Covaleski's for a shared Christmas dinner.



Stephen Elrick also joined us. He and Jim are working on cutting up Mr. Turkey.



Here we have Mr. Turkey ready for consumption. Very pretty in a morbid sort of way.



Everything came together for a wonderful meal.



And I even got a birthday cake to celebrate big number 47.



But alas, all dinners must end up with dishes being washed.



It was a wonderful Christmas. Lots of new snow. Great food. Great friends. One more year to be thankful for.
