"Step away from the tree!"

Early morning temptations with the village people.

He really truly does give the best Sulli Snuggle Hugs,
naturally here it looks more like a choke hold.
If you ever have the pleasure of having a famous Sulli Snuggle hug,
it will leave you with warm and fuzzys, I guarantee it!

Lately he's been doing this "thing" where
he sticks his hand down the front of his pants,
who does he think he is, Al Bundy?

More magic will be added to the mix on our Christmas day, and this time it comes in the shape of a former Israeli Captain.
A silent and very intellectual man, he always greets you with a nod and a silently closed smile.
He'll ask about your future plans, your future goals and aspirations, and he can patiently paint color by numbers with his grandson for hours, not stopping except to only look up briefly and while nodding, say, "very very nice, Jackson."

A very hard working man, it isn't often you won't see him writing a FRESH IDEA down on his companies logo print pad. You'll see him punching in some digits or letters on his Crackberry while his wife, my mother in law, rolls her eyes and says, "Thaaaaaaaaaaaattt's MY HUSBAND," smiling all along.
Our ever aware firstborn even expressed his concern over his Saba's use of the laptop, back when he was only 3 or 4, "Safta, he is always on his 'puter, when is Saba going to stop typing on his puter?"
But when he laughs, oh, how my father in law laughs. His entire body shakes before the sounds leave his mouth, the corners of his eyes prepare themselves with his hidden laugh lines, and his eyes glimmer with laughter. And he will just laugh and laugh. His way is contagious and if you're in a bad mood, and you catch this refined man laughing, he will pull you in with his witty one liners, and ever so contagious giggles, you will finish laughing by wiping the tears away from your eyes.

So in only 3 days excluding today, the very spot that you see our three rocking below, will be not one, but now two, special packages in big red bows, compliments of a nearby Lexus Dealership down in Florida.
Definitely is a magical time.
Welcome To Crustybeef~
In the meantime, I have baking to do, and Pam to fight off!

Speaking of Pam, in case you've always wondered how I aid in fighting her off, I will let you in on a little secret. These magical wonders help ease the annoyance of Pam the Vacation Squashier. If you haven't picked them up yet, and she tends to give you issues, trust me, you will love these. There's only 3 in a pack, but they last for 8 hours!! And they make you feel all warm!!
And now, "WHERE'S THE BEEF?"
