We celebrated Christmas at Jane's house in West Palm Beach with our parents and two friends, Paula and Lauren. Jim snapped this picture as I balanced my new "ears"; Jane is bent down under the tree in the lower right wearing her Santa hat. It was a typical Florida day with temps in the high 70s...

On Saturday, December 27, Jane and the parents came up to Palmetto Moon so Mom and Dad could meet Alex, see the tree lights in Marina Square, and dine at Cobb's Landing. The next day I drove back down to Jane's to spend more time with my parents and have Christmas dinner leftovers.
