This day could not of been MORE perfect…. I got to sleep-in, & then start on my DELICIOUS dinner. This dinner is really non-stressful for me cause Ham & funeral potatoes with sides is so much easier to accomplish rather than ALL of Thanksgiving. Plus my Madre was coming to my house this year for dinner & so she did the rolls… Awhhhh… it was a BLISSFUL day!!
I started dinner with Christmas Music BLASTING the house while SNOW, FINALLY, fluttered down…. & the best part….. IT. JUST. KEPT. ON. COMING!!!! :) PERFECT-O!!!!
MOST of our visitors got there early… good thing cause the roads got worse & worse!…. so we played some fun games with them. We also got to catch-up & hang-out with Megie & Blake! {we’ve missed them in TEXAS!!!}
Then it was time to do the finishing touches to “the dinner”. Everyone chipped in & it went really fast!!!
It was SOOOOO yummy…. I hope everyone enjoyed it!!!
After a lil clean-up we were onto our Nativity Play…. my kids were NOT wanting to do this, but after frustration from Mommy & a lil talkin’ to with Daddy, they were dressed & ready. Sometimes having company around makes them lil stinkers, but we STILL love ‘em!!
Then we got to open CHRISTMAS JAMMIES & SLIPPERS…. it’s always fun to MATCH my boys!!! :)
We sang some songs together…. talked….. ate dessert…. & got ready for Santa to come…. took a lil nap, for some,…. & then it was off to bed for the Young-ns & we said goodbye to Megie & Blake for the night.
It was so nice to have so many helpers!!! It made things much faster & the company to laugh & talk with was totally fun too!! Thanks for coming clear up here Mom, Dad, Dave, Megie, & Blake!! The storm did keep 3 visitors away & we sure missed Den, Julie, & Afton, but glad they stayed safe down there direction!!!
At the first part of December Emma wrote a note to Santa & put it in the “MILK” cup that he’d drink from when he came to our house. I never looked at it until after she went to bed on Christmas Eve….
This GIRLY is so SWEET!!! I just can’t believe I’m so lucky to have her as MY daughter!!!!
Bring on SANTA!!!
ps….. good thing SOMEONE took a lil snooze earlier cause i remembered at 9:30 that night that Santa had told me I would NEED 13 AAA batteries for one of the gifts he was bringing! good thing i married such an awesome man who would venture out on bad roads, to the ONLY store still open…. Kmart…. poor employs, but I’m glad we were able to get batteries from there INSTEAD of a GAS STATION!!!!
