Santa Baby

Sunday evening was spent at my Mom's house for our family Christmas celebration. We opened our gifts early because we'll be on vacation for the holidays. We all had such a nice time, yummy dinner, music, dessert, movies. While everyone was watching movies The Man put together the gift we got for my Mom. An art easel for her creative spirit. She is very artistic and talented! We also got her a complete set of oils, watercolors and acrylics. Can't wait to see what she does with them.

Isn't this Santa so adorable? I don't know how old he is, my Mom's had him for quite some time. Perhaps if she ever tires of him she will give him to me. I'll take good care of him.

Santa's face is so chubby, pink and jolly. And he always has that twinkling in his eyes. Then there is that creamy, snowy white velvet suit. It's so much more magical than a red one. Oh, I hope to adopt him one day. Soon. 

Celebrations were all day on Sunday. Earlier in the afternoon my sisters, girlfriends and Mom took me to lunch for my early birthday. We had a great time, the food was delicious and the cake spectacular. It's an Italian Cream Cake from Sam's Club. They only make it during the holidays, from Thanksgiving to the New Year. If you've never had one I suggest you run, don't walk to your nearest Sam's to claim your stake in one.

Happy Early Birthday! Italian Cream cake is delicious, we had one not too long ago from a local bakery. They made it totally calorie free, too. ;)

Sounds like you and your family had a wonderful time at your holiday gathering. Enjoy your trip!
