Christmas!

Apparently we had so much fun over Christmas that I forgot to take pictures! :( The only thing I took pictures of was the opening of presents... I guess I was too busy to think of it the rest of the time! I think pregnant brain has officially set in!!
We had plenty of gifts especially for the little guy! And Noland got his usual odd cheeses (mostly yuck!) Notice that Papa had a change of clothes during this process ... He got a nice set of comfy lounging clothes!

Mimi's presents were fun to get her! She wanted a Scrabble dictionary since I don't know when! Then the Richard Scary Game ... Iron was with me in the store when I picked it out for him and he just about got in big trouble because I told him it was for someone else and he DIDN'T like that! So when he opened it he said, "This is what I wanted!" Then the "thank you" hugs that Iron gave Mimi and Papa for being SO generous to him!!!

We had a wonderful weekend with 5 pies for a table of 11! It has been a long time since I had to put both leaves in the table! We had roast, chicken, mashed potatoes, green beans, asparagus, salad, dressing, gravy, and rolls! I think that is it ... It was a wonderful time had by all! I am thankful for each person who came to my table!

Preparing for Christmas day!

I hope that everyone is having a wonderful holiday season!



I am so glad that my son loves me! Even with being an exhausted pregnant mommy!



Helping mom do dishes! He loves to be in the kitchen with me!



The cake he made for Papa!! He kept telling everyone that he was making a treat for Papa so I finally had to ask him if he really wanted to. This is the treat he picked out. The Creme De Cacao Cake!
