Happy Twelfth Night!

For those of you not in the know, today is Twelfth Night. Appropriately, we took the tree down today. I wish I could say we planned that on purpose, but it just worked out that way.

We have a tradition in our family: When we take down the tree, we inevitably discover that we "forgot" some of the presents, which got hidden under the skirt. Somehow, this happens, no matter how thoroughly we check on Christmas Day. This year, I received a can-opener (a really nifty one that cuts up under the seal, so you don’t get jagged edges) to replace the one Hippie stole. So that means it’s all yours, Kayla!
