Boxing Day....

just went for a short walk - it is so beautiful out there today.  

we had a lovely gathering last evening, lots of laughter and great food, the eggnog was well appreciated!   now for the clean up :) - i was way to tired to deal with any of it last night after everyone left, we had offers of help, but everyone contributed so well to preparing the dinner that i didn't mind having to deal with it this morning.   Stage 1 has been completed :)
