He's gotten used to a fair amount in the way of domesticity - really, normality of a kind - in the last few years, so this isn't as weird as it might have been, stopping in with the family in tow. Flo is wearing a red velvet Christmas dress with a big satin bow of which she seems particularly proud, and Mack is in a green dress with considerably less in the way of foofiness. She's also wearing the elf shoes with the curled, belled toes that she'd become completely enamored of a couple of days before Christmas. The girls have their tastes. Mike doesn't question.
The girls have small plates of turkey and have solemnly promised to not get too crazy - he and Neil had the bright idea of putting candy in their stockings, so they've been nursing a sugar high since around nine. But for now things seem mostly sedate, and Mike grabs a helping of lamb and a glass of wine, taking a few seconds off duty. This still isn't even close to what passes for normal for most people, but he'll take it all the way.
