Chook is always the only one with her shirt tucked in.

Bye bye rent-a-pet
The last owners friends caught some kittens in their rat traps and brought them round to join Earl. We named them Scruffball and Joe.

Mele Kalikimaka!
Aloha!
Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas!
Apparently there's a house down in our Hood which is covered in lights. You park outside it and tune in to the radio station stated on the sign outside. You can then hear the music in your car, and be in awe of the lights as they flash to the rhythm of the music. It's not the house in this video, but if we can find it (could take a very long time) then I'll take another video.
Our news is, I am enjoying my new job, which came round quicker than I expected so there was no looking for a job involved. It's holidays already though - hang on, I just got started!
Chook has been cruising (on her bike) round the Lab at Doc's work the last few days. Another Doc with family, took in his wee lamb and the two of them apparently cruised rather far today: down the dirt track, through the 2nd gate and into the Agriculture 'test' field. Then the four of them went for lunch at MacDonald's....... Chook has been raised with a pretty good diet right from the word go, infact I even ate the fruits and salad I didn't particularly like when I was expecting and feeding her. Having watched THAT chicken nugget documentary back in the day I was pretty disgusted when she informed me that this was her food of choice this afternoon. Not sure whats worse - playing in the test zone or ingesting processed, bleached chicken feet and beaks. Will my grandchildren be purple?
We're having a few ladies over for dinner on Christmas day. Just as well we remembered to buy chairs today, china's finest. That's right, not synonymous with my usual quality, but at the moment I don't want to see furniture we love because, A. It's $8k at least to ship to Europe and B. Humidity and furniture aren't a good match. Will we succumb to quality furniture shopping......likely, but not until Doc gets that bit of paper with an extension date on it. I know, I know, how Aberdonian of me! I'm actually closer to an Edinbur...........ger by birth, but given our time-served in the Granite City....

Right Oh, time to go bake some gingerbread cookies, tis the season after all!

Photos
The videos I uploaded here originally were too big for one post, so there are now three seperate posts following.
The thing about not blogging often enough, is that I then have to go back and re-read what I've written the last time. So I had better start with some photos, as promised (although if you want the full set of picassa photos which we upload every 2 months, then just drop me an email to add you to the list).
