Christmas Morning

Our little Christmas morning... Zoe got new toys, of course. :)

Zoe is all tucked into a corner, on a shelf of the bookcase, ready to open presents! :)

My wife discovered a secret package that appeared on Christmas morning, with a note warning her and Zoe to keep their paws off. They respected the note until it was time to open, and then she found herself owning a pretty little globe.

She also got a sneaky present from Zoe. A St. Louis Cardinals hat that she has been wanting, from our St. Louis kitty. :)

Zoe inspects the piles of stuffing that come with Crate & Barrel dishes! And my cool new t-shirt.

Zoe pondering the possibility of writing us a note on the new typewriter. Or possibly just being blocked from getting in our way while cooking breakfast. :)

My wife (completely) surprised me with a new set of dishes that we've wanted since our wedding. We went out the next weekend and got a few more pieces for the set. It's so nice to have matching dishes in the cabinet.

The remnants. A good Christmas, with lots of recycling. :)
