Here we are with another post about what is on my camera roll. I have a ton of pictures of our grandson but I won’t share those here. I try to respect his parents wishes and don’t share his picture on social media unless I ask and you know I have plenty of other pictures to share of other things, right? So here it goes…

Chris got me a great present this year –an I Home Clean which I have named Rosie. It has already proved to change my life. I realize that is a tad dramatic but these cats kick up a lot of litter and fur is always an issue so I am hoping to keep up with it a little bit more with the help of Rosie. Of course the cats have to keep on eye on her…

It was all good until I missed picking up one of Maksim’s favorite toys and Rosie sucked it up. Chris and I were able to trouble shoot it and cleaned it all out but now I know she will suck up just about anything so watch out. Maksim helped me put all the Christmas stuff away but mainly he just sat on the stockings.

I found out that I am a tastemaker with Starbucks.

I loved this display at REI — we call them “do not eats” in our family but what a great way to recycle and reuse them.

Remember my story about the counterfeit Advent calendars? Well, I think I got got again. We ordered Grinch shirts to wear with Theo and got him one as well. This was Chris’s.

.

When Theo was here we had taco night ( a huge hit and he ate 5 mini tacos) and pizza night. This was his pizza he made on his own.

Finally, Auntie Erin and Uncle Aaron got Theo a cute tent for Christmas. We all took turns playing in it and I captured the rare lobster monster when he appeared.

Have a great week and I will see you back here on Monday. Sounds like bad weather might be on the way so stay warm and safe all of you.
