A Very Merry Non-Traditional Christmas...

Breaking my no picture rule to wish you a Merry Christmas from Aruba.

This was certainly the most non-traditional Christmas that I have ever experienced.

The kids slept in late.  We ate breakfast outside.  We opened Santa's gifts and went to the beach before opening any others.  I took a nap and read a book.  We're headed our to a Japanese Steak House for Christmas dinner and will be meeting up with our local friends this evening.

Non-traditional indeed, but I am loving it.

Oh, and check out what was in my stocking...apparently Santa thinks I was a very nice Mommy this year...actually, there is a story behind it that I will share in a later post. 

(Note: In case you can't open the link, it's a Tiffany's Platinum Etoile Heart Pendant)

You go girl! Glad you guys are having a great holiday and good job hubby on the gift! The blue Tiffany's box is ALWAYS a good thing!

Something tells me the kids really don't mind the Christmas sans snow. Enjoy the rest of your vacation and do try to fit some Jack and Cokes in there with the Margaritas, ok?

Holy crap that's a super nice gift. You must have watched your p's and q's VERY well this year. Dang. I am just stopping by to wish you and your family a sweet x-mas (which it appears you are already having. ARUBA?! Awesome.) Be sure to have Maker's and sour for me. Those are super good in hot weather.
