Greetings to all! It's me, Mags! My favorite day of the year came a little early, as Ragnar and I helped our mom pack up some special packages for friends and family. Here's a shot for you:

Christmas 2022

From our house to yours, we all wish you a most blessed and merry Christmas!

And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men. Luke 2:9-14

And now ... for some Christmas quick takes.

When you want to go into the kitchen to help with KP, but don't want to leave your tree ...

"I'm so conflicted.  Could you do the cheese in here?"

When you're feeling cooperative ...

"Hey.  Have a cool Yule!"

When you're about to make a break for it ...

"I ... uh ... wait.  Is that an animal cracker?"

When you're making plans with your bestest friend ...

"So when Santa comes ..."
"We should wait for him right here, Mags!"

When you're ready for a snooter smooch ...

"Did someone say 'mistletoe'?"

And when you end up posing incognito by some of the Christmas decor ...

"The angel tree is over there by the fox quilt ..."

"This is my favorite - the Patriotic Tree! 🇺🇸"

When you've been as absolutely good as a couple of Siberians can be ...

"How's this, Mom?"
"Last one, OK, Mom?"

It's Christmas!!! And then it's finally time to relax!

"I'll grab your bandana and pull it off if you'll do mine!"
"DEAL!"

Merry Christmas to all!

Ho Ho Ho

Greetings to all! It's me, Mags. Over here.

" Good girl, Mags! "
"Yeah, yeah, y--I mean 'ho, ho, ho!'  Whatever.  Where's Ragnar?!?"

A certain brother is really slacking in the "sharing the burden" department.  Ahem.

Yours sincerely,
