Christmas Pic

We actually took quite a few that day, but it shortly dissolved into something more like this:
And then we all went to visit Santa where the small ones proceeded to completely freak out. But there were cookies, so all was good. I also now realize that our livingroom carpet and drapes should never be featured in closeup. It is just me, or does the pattern mix make your head spin? It's actually quite nice when you see the whole room at once...
