Feliz Navidad

there are so many great aspects of xmas but my favorite is finding the perfect gift to give people. 

i enjoy the thrill of looking for that one thing that you know is going to really make that person happy, but also surprising them.

i know that my brothers will love their presents if i have a hard time giving these precious thrift store finds to them because i love them so much i would like to keep them myself.  

i found allen the greatest italian tan leather messenger bag with two metal buckles straps.  

so great.

it's been a peaceful, navidad.  full of love, the spirit of christmas and family humor.
