This is my tribute to mlia. My average, normal, family Christmas. It was wonderful!
A smaller than average tree for a smaller than average apartment.
A normal photo of us on our Christmas Date.
Christmas Eve Service.
The totally normal candlelit hymn singing.
An average sisterly bond.
Our inability to take a normal photo...
Ever. 
A cat in a bag. Totally normal. 
A young Santa. 
And the always-fun torture of the kitten with a laser. 
Perfectly average. 
Annnnnnd, Lord of the Rings.
Last, but certainly not least. McGyver. Take a look at that hair, Ladies and Gentlemen. Take in its' full glory. I bet you wish you had hair half as good as my brother-in-law. [Also notice the I heart Justin Bieber bracelet.] 
Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!
