spirit…or something like it
December 27, 2005
Spirit is the theme at Mama Says Om this week…..I captured all the Boxing Day spirit happening at our house yesterday……it all started with Big D and boys curling up to watch The Polar Express. Troll Baby didn’t exactly sit still though….
The spirit continued later when my brother Joel and his lovely girlfriend Mellie Mel from Mellerton came over to celebrate Christmas, and Mellie Mel from Mellerton’s birthday….
Enjoying new Christmas presents with Uncle Joel….
For Mellie Mel from Mellerton’s birthday, we decided to give her something that meant alot.

Three stalks of Lucky Bamboo means happiness. May all the happiness Mel deserves come her way!! She is a very special, loving, caring, funny, super-fantastic, awesome, amazing, fabulous, wonderfully wonderful person and we love her so very much! Happy Birthday Mel!!!!

Later, the rose coloured glasses began to work as we indulged in many Christmas Spirits….we played poker and laughed like the little children that we had tucked into their beds earlier….
Then some weird things began to appear on the camera display….
Even the dinosaur had too much spirit……
Happy Boxing Day!

Being one of those ignorant Americans I have know idea what Boxing day is for. I do know that if I had a Boxing day party that my husband and his other drunk friends would probably start boxing and tear the shit out of my house.
Even so, it looks like y’all had fun and the poor little dinosaur needs a cold compress. His hangover is going to be righteous.

Hi - found you through the Mamasaysom theme…
Strange how many coincidences I find online: I gave 3 stalks of lucky bamboo this year as well…
