For Newi and Mel...

... since you hated the blurry shot. ; )

You can't tell in this picture, but the second from bottom strand of lights aren't working. They're only 2 years old. I thought they stopped making strands of lights that stop working when one bulb goes out back in '67 or something? Now I have to go bulb by bulb to find the culprit.


Close-up.


Fake greenery. This angle exaggerates the fact that Ben's stocking at the top, handmade by me, is a little on the small side. When I took them out of the box this year, Ben said, "Did mine grow any?"

Hmmm... I think that may really be the actual size. It fits two candy bars and a pair of socks. Is there any other Ben out there that is looking for a smaller stocking? I would be willing to trade. I'll even include a pair of socks from last Christmas!

Remember I toiled over that for you? Handmade with love. It also fits several lumps of coal.

Ben should do stand up comedy (and get a few lumps of coal in his stocking!).

Hmmm....we don't know, Ben...did yours grow since last year??

Ben, size isn't everything...
