Christmas 2013

We interrupt Hawaii posts with holiday greetings!  Todd, I, and Noodle wish you a very happy holiday season! 

We had a very relaxed Christmas yesterday.  On Christmas Eve we watched “Elf” together.  We didn’t have our annual Elf Party this year due to our traveling and busy work schedules.  Yesterday we woke up and made Belgian waffles for breakfast.

And then there was some gift opening…

Noodle hung out on his perch in the awesome sunshine.  It was to be almost 80 degrees out!  Santa brought Noodle a hummingbird bird feeder.  Todd will help him hang it up outside his perch so he can bird-watch.  :-)

Can’t beat zombie t-shirts with hot chocolate!

At noon we had Christmas lunch reservations at Pacifica Del Mar.

It was such a gorgeous day at the coast!  So clear and warm.

The bread there was really really good.

I chose crab cakes for appetizer.

Todd chose butternut squash soup.

I had filet mignon.

Todd had some of my filet and his salmon.

For dessert, I had the chocolate pecan pie…

Todd had the carrot cheesecake.

Such awesome views from the plaza to the ocean.

We took our tripod and took a few photos.  Maybe one of them will turn up on our 2014 Christmas card!

Hawaii, you’ve got nothing on San Diego!  Home is where the heart is!
