Ho Ho Ho


Ho Ho Ho...On Dasher, On Dancer, On Comet and Blitzen...
That's the sound of Santa (said in an exciting kid voice)! And guess what?! Santa is now officially my Uncle. He's actually been my commonlaw uncle for quite some time now - dating back to me being in middle school - I think. Ok, what in the world am I talking about? Well, the family gossip of the year just exploded at my grandma's house. My Aunt Edwina (aka my 2nd mom and disneyland tea cup riding partner for life) got MARRIED!!!! You see my A. Ed married a man who looks just like Santa Claus.
"His eyes - how they twinkled! His dimples how merry! His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry! His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow, and the beard of his chin was as white as the snow...he had a broad face and a little round belly, that shook when he lauged like a bowlful of jelly. He was chubby and plump, a right jolly old elf" (from the night before x-mas)
You get the point. But he really does look like Santa. Right around now, he tends to wear red and children when out and about with their parents will stop and stare. Ahh...to still believe!
Very un-santa like though - they were married on my Aunt's favorite day of the year! October 31st (and yes we just found out like 2 days ago). I wish I had a picture of my new uncle to share, but as you can imagine he's quite busy this time of year. I will try to get one at x-mas after his work is all through, that I can bring back and share with you.

My A. Ed - pictured above. Who may very well take back my x-mas present for this post! haha
Love you Auntie Ed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

Thank you Jennifer!! If it weren't for you we wouldn't know this wonderful news.... It was your Aunt Ed that shared your blog with me. So proud of you keep up the good/great work Dr. Jen. It is nice to read about how and what you are doing. All the best. May you have a blessed advent.

PS for the Leonardo Christmas Card Classic we may have to decorate a wedding reception theme using Christmas colors and add a few black and orange Halloween decorations......
