Okay, so last night was just a temporary freak out. I really do love the holiday. I love to do the baking and the entertaining. I love having people over, no matter if they are family or not. (sometimes the not family even better because if they don't have family to go to, I know they are not alone! I guess it is a trait left over from active duty military) I got most of my list done. I cut a few things out, like the laundry. I did do the load with the girls' jammies, but that is about as far as I got. I made all of the cookies and decorated the table. The house was respectable, not perfect, but definitely respectable.
Everyone showed up, ate a lot and seemed to have a pretty good time. The kids played great. By the time it was dinner, no one was hungry. I kind of figured that, but I like it when everyone can just graze all day. Randy fried wings in the big turkey fryer, I made stuffed mushrooms, chips and salsa, and a hot pizza dip, cookies, and butter cake. That was just the appetizers. I had Tex-Mex pork ready for sandwiches, salad, and Parmesan potatoes. I know what i am going to be eating for the next couple of days.
It was a very nice day. Randy and I finished wrapping the presents and we are headed off to bed. MERRY CHRISTMAS! Hope your day is filled with fun and family.
