Christmas 2009 for Lois & FamilyLois spent 2009 NOT cleaning her house, NOT scrapbooking, NOT making her kids dinner, and best of all, in this crazy economy, Lois spent the year NOT unemployed.
Nigel spent the year NOT being a starving artist (he actually sold many paintings), NOT getting away from scouts (he went from Webelos leader to Cub Master), but best of all, Nigel did NOT pop any more holes in his lungs.
Frances finished the year NOT reading classic literature when there's a good ghost story or alien book near by, NOT failing in school and NOT being one of those horrible children you see on an MTV reality show.
Jeffrey spent 2009 NOT cleaning up his Legos, NOT giving up his plans for his own Viking-themed amusement park, and NOT letting up on lecturing his family on NOT spending money.
Alice-Grace pretty much spent this last year doing "skin the cat" on an old broom stick that she places between the arm rests of the couch and love seat. Luckily, she has NOT been taken to the emergency room -- yet.
Stupid Rabbit ("Stew" for short) has NOT figured out that he's only supposed to pooh in his cage, NOT realized that he's a vegetarian, and it has NOT dawned on him that a balloon is NOT a girl rabbit.
Here's to a very merry Christmas and a happy and prosperous New Year from our family to yours.

Creepy picture, awesome letter. For a second, when I looked at the photo, I was confused by "your" long hair.
haha on the picture... do you know them?
I loved your unconventional letter :) LOVED IT
I'm so glad I know you. You make me laugh so hard!
Love it. Merry Christmas.
SHANA -- my husband totally didn't get the picture. I had to tell him, "Look under the mom's butt!"
SHILLIGS -- no, I found the photo on www.awkwardfamilyphotos.com. Unconventional? I guess so. I just hate the bragging holiday newsletters that go on and on and on. Keep it short and realistic.
JANET -- glad I could make you laugh. Miss you!!!
CAMILLE -- Merry Christmas to you, too!
haha I didn't even see the face under the mom! I had to go back and look after your comment!
Have you been feeding Stew chocolate? It's making him think he's in love.
I am so glad you did NOT neglect to send out some holiday greeting this year, even if I don't have a hard copy (but I guess that's what printers are for). I have always loved your Christmas newsletters best.
P.S. The couch cushion lady raises big questions for me.
