early Christmas!

We're taking a road trip down to L.A., San Diego, and Mexico for Christmas...leaving like right now (we were supposed to leave an hour ago). Since we'll be away on the 25th, I made the sneaky decision to open all our presents last night!

We didn't decorate much holiday stuff, but placed received gifts around a succulent plant, and stuck an ornament on it (a tiny Christmas photo frame in which Dav stuck this picture). With the cards we've been receiving, it got holiday-ish enough :)

Received funky Santa hats (perfect for next year's Santacon), Japanese sox with individual toes (or the "tabi" kind with the big toe on its own), neato postcards that I fell in love with, a head-bobbing handmade cat, many yummy Japanese snacks, and...what I smiled much over...a gift for "our newcomer." It was a fluffy hippo. I called my parents, and my mom sheepishly confessed she couldn't help it. Made me very happy!

I loved the Christmas card we got from my parents...addressed to: Dav & Mie & Gargle. Yes, our Little Bug has a nickname from my dad already. So Gargle it is!

Happy Holidays to everyone! Enjoy the rest of 2005, and see ya in 2006!

Hey! I'm going to be in L.A. too. Sounds like a wonderful holiday. I hope you get lots and lots of R&R. Gargle. Very very cute. At first I thought it said Gargoyle! A little different but adorable too. Much love and holiday greetings...

Enjoy L.A.! We're in San Diego now, and about to head to the border right now. It's been nice driving around as we please, meeting up with old friends, etc. Hope your vacation is great too!
