Note: It's fake. But looks pretty good.  Our stockings over the fireplace (mine is on the far right).  Cool fan we got somewhere a long time ago.  My trusty tuba.  My 5/8 bass that is somewhat in disrepair.  Our dining room, done up for Christmas Eve company.  My parents bought this when they came to visit me in Japan and we all went together to Kyoto. I think they bought it at a place called the Kyoto Traditional Crafts Center.  Our den, where I spend most of my time, sometimes.  Our cars (Note: my dad already got a new car since this photo was taken.)  The kitchen, where I eat stuff.  The other side of the kitchen.  The ham that was eaten on Christmas Eve.  Otherwise known as a yule log!  Cookies assortment that was partially made by my sister I think.  These may not look too appetizing in the picture, but they were delicious.  Note: I did not consume any of this.  I wanted to take this picture to show to Yuriko, because she bought me the tie as well as the tie clip shown here. I still look kind of lame (put too much hair gel on one side of my head, I think).  For people opening presents, no one here looks happy. At all.  This is some of the stuff I got. Note the Onion  Looking slightly happier after opening a few.
