My niece Brooke did a great job with Christmas this year — she not only got me awesome stocking gifts, but she made her grandmother a calendar with photos of all the family, which Ann loved, of course.
Also pictured — Kevin’s dad with his new cap, Kevin with a little ornament of a charming lion in snazzy clothes that says #1 Dad (from me), and my brother-in-law Shawn with…I’m not sure what, actually, but he does look happy!
(Shawn works for NASA, and one of these days I’m going to show up at a SF convention decked out in NASA gear from his division, and everyone’s going to think *I* work at NASA, but sadly, I do not. I do like the sweatshirts, though.
