No picture of Alex wearing the completed Jesse's Flames/Wonderful Wallaby hybrid, with yellow duplicate stitching (which you don't see because I didn't get a picture of it) around the flames.
No picture of Kait wearing her Stripes and Bobbles scarf, along with her new fleece bathrobe.
No picture of Graham trying on his sweater and still wearing his socks two days later.
No picture of Em's surprised expression when she opened her scarf (which I never mentioned here for fear she would sneak a look at my blog) and squealed, "When did you MAKE this?'
No pic of Kai stripping down to his undies to try on his Cotton-Ease sweater and patriotic socks. No visual record of that being his mode of dress for the rest of Christmas Day.
No pic of Peter opening his (FINISHED) socks and setting them aside, without even trying them on. *sniff*
The floral buttons I carefully sewed on Abi's cardigan started popping off as soon as she opened the box. Peeto chewed the thumb on one of her felted mittens. The half-finished Bad JuJu for Kait is still sitting here on my desk. I still have to frog back to the mistake I made in the cables of Peter's scarf and reknit. I barely started Dave's pink and black striped socks, worked on them later before deciding they weren't going to fit and frogged them. I'm several inches into them again and now they're looking huge (4.5 inches across, 9 inches around...is that a huge sock for a size 13 foot?).
Some of it was good. Some of it, not so. I suck for not picking up the damn camera. And I also suck for somehow managing to fry my hard drive after I'd already uploaded (deleting from the camera in the process) the post-Santa visit tree pics.
There's absolutely no remaining record of Christmas 2005 in the Twinsanity household. *sob*
Unless you count the still-decorated tree dropping needles in the corner of the livingroom. Oh, come on. I can't be the only one with the tree still up on January 9th...can I?
But here's a pic of some of my Christmas gifts. Some people (dear Peter and my secret santa Sam) clearly love me enough to overlook my suckiness!

That's so sad about the pictures :( I've been waiting and hoping to see them. I'm sure everything was beautiful, like what we got to see already. Lucky you, all the books!
