xmas in LA

i'm back from xmas in L.A. it was pretty fun, got to see a lot of my family that i haven't seen in a long time. my step-nephews love me, i hope they think of me as the "fun aunt" hehe. of course crazy things had to happen too, it was so windy christmas eve that the power was out for our whole family dinner so we were walking around with candles & flashlights...kinda set a certain mood tho :D then on christmas day, the dogs started growling at a cat and then went nuts and started chasing each other and clawed grandma's leg, who started screeching. luckily the injury wasn't too bad and we got everything under control fast. for a second it seemed like i was in some wacky christmas comedy.

here is something i brought back from LA with me to commemorate the holidays.
