I've started this post about eighty seven times, and am now ready to admit that I'm clearly too tired to string together any words... so instead of giving up on a post entirely, I give you the holiday in pictures. 
Tomorrow I'd love to show you some of the beautiful hand made gifts that turned up at (and left) our house. It turns out that something happened this year, and the gene that controls independent craftiness got turned on in our kids.
So far, our Christmas is wonderful. How's yours going?
