Christmas Time

Posted on December 29, 2009

Christmas was wonderful.  Surrounded by family and friends we celebrated for three days.  Lots of cleaning, lots of cooking, and lot of eating.  Nothing can compare to the warmth of my ever growing noisy family.

One of the most memorable moments this Christmas was when my sister Marina presented Mom with her gift–a huge canvas of our entire clan.  I restored the image when I was working on publishing Mom’s memoirs, and it literally took me days to get it to the point of satisfaction.  When Mom “unwrapped” her present her heart seemed to have skipped a beat.  But I will let you be the judge of it yourself.

Wait for it, wait for it…. There it is!

[If you are wondering, I am the little cute chubby cherub in my Mom's lap.]

So, there you have it–our beautiful large family all on one image–about the only time that will ever happen. 

I hope your Christmas was as wonderful and heart-warming!  I also wish you the best, recession-proof New Year! 

See you next year!

Elena
