In the days leading up to Christmas: You can look really cute in a Santa hat.....................

And have a jolly time destroying the Christmas tree................ And share good times with friends......................

And pose really pretty for the camera..................

And toast your friends...................

And crack some really big nuts....................

And fete your loved ones with a Soup Party..................

And pose with simpatico cousins...............

And fill your tummy with good food...................

And express your gratitude to your hosts........................

And have fun, fun, fun.......................

And celebrate a special birthday.................

And have a rip-snorting, root-tooting good time.......................

And hang the stockings for Santa.......................

And celebrate a milestone birthday (60).................................

And celebrate with friends (although Connie doesn't seem to be too happy about having her picture taken!).............................

And express yourself.....................

And enjoy time with friends who have been with you for over forty years..................

And enjoy the adoration of someone who loves you.....................

And be amazed and amused by what you see........................

And spread some holiday cheer...............................

And sometimes have to pout because you have been punished.........................

And feel sooooooooooo misunderstood! (Don't feel so bad, Winston, the Christmas tree will be back up in a few days and you can prove to EVERYONE just how much you have matured this year................................
