Tis the Season . . .

 For Herman the Elf and Jason the Nutcracker to spend a little quality time together.

 For these three to head off to the zoo on Christmas Eve in super frigid temperatures so that mom could get Christmas stuff ready at home. Tiger was extra thrilled about this outing.

 For the kids to wear their animal hat/gloves/scarves that Aunt Sandy sent.

 A bear and leopard?

 A panda?

For Tiger to spend Christmas day in his new Iron Patriot costume and then spend the evening at Grandma and Grandpa's house eating tasty food, opening presents, and playing Apples to Apples. Grandma even got out her teacups for an impromptu hot chocolate tea party. It's been a good season.
