These were taken Christmas Day, 2010 (just last year). It was my niece's husband's first White Christmas. Granted, it was really only a light dusting, but white none-the-less. Rodrigo is from Chile, and in Chile it is summertime when Christmas rolls around. So we were all thrilled for him.
This is Tinkerbell, my former roommate's cat, but I just called her "Kee-cat" (like I was saying kitty, but leaving out the T sound). I often had to shut her out of my room, because as you can see, she likes beads (almost as much as I do.) I got tired of not only chasing her for a tube of beads, but she would more often than not be much more sneaky about the bead-jackings than this, and thus ensued a game of hide-n-seek. I was so surprised I caught her in the act AND had my camera at hand. When I wasn't beading, I would allow her in my room. She was a very affectionate and loving kitty. She was also my snuggle buddy at nap time.
Oh, I love it-beadjacking! Too funny! So, the thoughts of a "white Christmas" give us warm fuzzies, but I bet it was strange to him!
ReplyDeleteIt was strange to him, but at the same time, every new experience he has, he has this child-like wonderment to him. I guess with as much culture shock as he's gone thru since he's been in the U.S., that's probably the only way to look at things. :) He's a wonderful, sweet guy and I'm glad that my niece found such a great person to spend the rest of her life with.
