Today is Boxing Day! According to Wikipedia:
Boxing Day is a holiday traditionally celebrated the day following Christmas Day, when servants and tradespeople would receive gifts, known as a “Christmas box”, from their bosses or employers, in the United Kingdom, Canada, Hong Kong, Australia, New Zealand, Kenya, South Africa, Guyana, Trinidad and Tobago, Jamaica and other Commonwealth nations. Today, Boxing Day is the bank holiday that generally takes place on 26 December.
Which, you know, is a nice story and all, Wikipedia, but I’m pretty sure the entire internet knows what Boxing Day is REALLY all about.
Jethro, the first one in the box. That’s shocking. NOT.
This box had been sitting in the kitchen for about a month before I carried it upstairs, so I’m sure it smelled like many different permanent residents.
A little confused, our Stevie.
I bet she’s half in love with Tommy, just from smelling him on the box.
Pat ventured out of the closet to get a bit possessive about the box, going so far as to smack Lizzy (who didn’t take offense.)
The look on Pat’s face is killing me dead.
“I told HER!”
More sniffing. Is the smell stronger on the outside of the box, or the inside? They’ll never tell.
Starting to get crowded…
“I haz a box.”
Molly, quite pleased with herself.
And of course they had to knock it over on its side. Look how perfectly Jethro fits in that box! 😉

It’s Grandma Poo in a box! She might be elderly, but she’s still got those box-sitting skillz.
Corbie fits pretty perfectly in that box.
“I gots the box, ha ha HA!”
