My HD Shotgun Is Finally Finished

Seven rounds in the magazine, one up the spout and six more standing by at the ready. She will now reside at the far end of the house until needed to Repel Boarders.

Placing Bunny in the baby swing.

Somewhere Nana located some small play baby bottles, one a "milk" bottle and the other a "juice" bottle.

More gifts were exchanged.

While dad fits a new pair of sneakers on one child's foot another shows of his new Leapster game.

Busy children checking things out all around the tree.

Even the adults have things to check out.

The last Christmas present has been claimed.
