League Rewind (Week of November 30th)


Happy post-Thanksgiving.

That picture above is my (first) plate of food from Thanksgiving dinner at my folks' house.  Jason, Amy and the kids were visiting her parents and family in Phoenix.  Back here we had Karebear at the forefront making an amazing dinner.  Jamie made the stuffing (and it was great).  The Admiral poured wine.  My Unky B moved here this year was in attendance, as was Cousin Sue.  And Jamie's Dad, DocDik, rode up with us.  Late, my folks' friend, Janie, arrived and joined us.  

It was lovely.  Had some nice pumpkin pie, too.  

The Phoenix voyagers returned before the weekend, so we did all manage to catch dinner out (where I ate so much cheese, I needed to be rolled home).

Settling into the Holidays at League HQ - 2025


Well, Thanksgiving is over and we're headed toward Christmas and New Year.  

This weekend, Jamie and I managed to decorate the inside and outside of League HQ.  It was a large task, but we'd started by setting up one of our two trees last weekend, and it took a surprising amount of pressure off this weekend.

Starting last year, we quit wrapping the upstairs pillars as we had a friendly owl living in the balcony.  But the oak tree in front of our house more or less obscures the lights up there, anyway.  So, now you just get the four columns of peppermint wrap and the candy lights in the tree.  You're welcome.

Meanwhile, the living room isn't much different from in prior years.
