Christmas Meme -- come and play!

[ankaree]

It's a little snowy outside today, the radio station I like to listen to is now playing Christmas music, so it's put me in a Christmassy mood *g*. Thought I'd play this meme and hopefully some of you will play along, too. I'll tag a few people, but anyone can paritcipate if they wish.

That's okay, no worries!

One of our dogs, his first christmas with us, decided that because there was a real tree inside the house, he could use it to pee on, LOL. Luckily there weren't any presents under it ;)

Oooooo, beef roast, yummmmy!!! :D
