Happy New Year! Our holiday season was busy and full of spirit for sure!
The Waco Jazz Orchestra always puts on a great show. Their Christmas Holiday Spectacular was wonderful.
My wife and I joined a book club and our host held a end of year get-together at her home. I spotted this there. 
I spent a few days in Tulsa for our office festivities up there. I met this cheerful guy looking for his home.
Penney joined in on Christmas dinner.
And now there's nothing left but the cleanup!
I hope you all had a wonderful and safe holiday season. I'm looking forward to another year of fun prompts to keep us all going in 2026!

Happy new year, Mike! I enjoyed your pictures, especially the green guy - feels like E.T. meets Grinch?
I finished my clean up today! I'd love to listen to a Christmas Jazz spectacular! I have some holiday songs by Boots Randolph and they are fun. That holiday peacock may be the most unusual Christmas decoration I've ever seen! Peace to your and yours for 2026.

Reading your post reminded me that I failed to listen to much Christmas music in December. I've made a note in my planner to remember to do that in 2026 - it always helps foster the Spirit of the Season. And enjoying some live tunes? Even better!! Glad you snapped the holiday peacock photo - as Lisa said, very unusual.
How are you liking book club? My neighbourhood ladies' book club just finished "The Correspondent" by Virginia Evans and our next title is "The Frozen River" by Arial Lawhon. My pick, for March, is "All the Beauty of the World" by Patrick Bringly, summed up on Goodreads as follows:
"A fascinating, revelatory portrait of the Metropolitan Museum of Art and its treasures by a former New Yorker staffer who spent a decade as a museum guard."
Always open to new book recommendations, so feel free to share if you like.
