Well another Christmas has come and gone. Although a rather quiet day it was still a terrific one! The girls spoilt both Roger and I and I must admit I love it!
After opening presents we played a few games waiting for the Turkey to cook. I had rushed to make pumpkin pies the weekend before Christmas and Jess and I were so looking forward to our favourite pie after dinner. So right after dinner I dished up a huge slice for Jess and I and we both dug in...only after one bite we looked at each other and said it was terrible. In hindsight I think I forgot to add sugar to not one but two pies!!! So disappointing and to make matters worse we were expecting Angie and Shane the next day and Shane was so looking forward to pumpkin pie.
Boxing day Jess ran to the store so I could make another pie before our guests arrived. Angie and Shane came after lunch and we played the game Forbidden Words...what a great game and such a laugh. I was so pleased that Angie did so well the entire day and managed to stay until 9pm. I'm sure she was absolutely exhausted the next day and I hope she felt it was worth it!
Today we are all taking it easy...a nice relaxing day after a few busy days...I love this time of year and love spending time with the girls playing games and just generally having a laugh!! Only 362 days to go before we do it all again!
P.S. Made sticky cinnamon buns today...did not take long for them to start getting gobbled up! Cabbage rolls and perogies tonight...brings back great memories! Hope I do my Mom proud!
