Our Family Christmas Celebrations, 2003
Carlson Christmas family celebration in three homes - first, ours for dinner on the 23rd, then the Fisses for Christmas morning, ending at the Carlsons for the rest of the day, presents, and dinner.
 Our family celebrations began on Christmas Eve eve (squared?). We had dinner and a few presents, like tee shirts for the grandchildren from Ixtapa and Zihuatanejo (see "44th Anniversary Mexico..." under Travel on this site) and tree ornaments for the grownups waiting at their places. 2005:12:23 13:06:28 20 mm 1/60 f4.2 |
