We had a wonderful Christmas Day. Very busy, but lots of fun. Our Christmas Eve service featured old-fashioned carolers, and the kids tried on the costume hats afterwards. Later that night, I made a Christmas Eve dinner of turkey, sweet and sour meatballs, shrimp cocktail, spinach salad, cranberry tea, cold cuts and cheese, salmon ball, and satin pie! It turned out pretty well and we have tons of leftovers.
Christmas morning we started with our traditional breakfast of grapefruit, sausage balls, and buttered raisin bread . . .still more leftovers. Then, on to presents. The kids had a great time with all of their clothes and gifts. Later that afternoon, we traveled up near Detroit for an extended family gathering. When I got home that evening, the cleanup process began. I told Brett that if a tornado would go through our living room, it might actually leave it cleaner than it was!
I'm back at work today after braving some scary black ice on the highways (again). At least it's only one day, and I'm sooo looking forward to the weekend, where I don't have anything planned and I intend to keep it that way!
Hope you all had a Merry Christmas too!
