Season's Greetings
This year we put up the tree and decorated the house at the end of November. Every day the kids checked under the tree and peeked in their stockings to see if any presents arrived.
They got us up at 4:30 on Christmas morning. Apparently they had been awake since 3:41 (Zoe got a watch for her birthday). They checked the living room and Santa had eaten the snack and left presents in their stockings. Finally, they heard Rick roll over and came racing in with such excitement. Who could send those adorable smiling faces back to bed?
After presents and breakfast, we settled in to setting up and playing with the Christmas treasures. As usual, Rick made an amazing Christmas dinner which we shared with friends. He didn't take my advice a few weeks ago when I told him to buy the Stovetop Stuffing that we saw, so of course when he went looking a few days before Christmas, it was gone. His homemade creation was so delicious, I don't think he'll ever use premade again.
The weather Christmas day was upper 20's and there was a sunny blue sky all day - definitely a tee-shirt and shorts kind of day.
Since Christmas fell on a Saturday this year, I got to enjoy the day off. But, it was back to work on Sunday. The kids are off for a 2 week vacation and go back to school on Sunday.
