    Holiday Mess!

    I must give credit to Judy Jeute at Royal Ranch for sharing this quote first. It fit our day beautifully.

    "One of the most glorious messes in the world in the mess created in the living room on Christmas day. Don't clean it up too quickly." -Andy Rooney


    Not messy enough? Here, see the big picture.


    Amigo convinced me to leave all the wrapping paper and ribbons out for a while so the bunnies could have fun playing with them. I agreed, on one condition: he had to let me borrow his garbage truck.

    Oh, okay. Seriously? We left the mess to the bunnies until Chuck's parents called saying they were coming earlier than planned. Hectic clean-up time!

    Merry Christmas to all who celebrate. I hope your family had many glorious messes.
