Christmas Eve!

Stacy sent me a photo from down South...a very warm Christmas in Florida this year!

My view this morning...warm and overcast...

Elvis and Chris came over for a Christmas Eve turkey dinner...the twin stayed home with a sore throat and cold!

Dinner...The Barefoot Conttessa's Herb-Roasted Turkey Breast...

Turkey, mash potatoes, onions and shiitake mushrooms and cheese covered asparagus.

My gift from Chris...

Today at the shop I wrapped one of our techs son's Christmas gifts, as he is a single  parent.

Five pounds of olives! I really got these for the big glass jar, but we will be eating them for a long time!

Dinner...

Rib eye steak, potato rounds, artichoke and a salad some where on the table.

This is at the end of the shop road...cool looking cement plant.

I haven't been at the intersection of 13th street and University Ave. in awhile.  I sure was surprised to see all this going on...I liked the empty lot better.

Here I'm following Chris...he score a leather sofa.

Peek-a-boo...

Dinner...

Chili, rice and a salad.

My view this Solstice morning...

The twin's catch today...

Sunday Christmas shopping with Conner at Target...

 Miss Addie wanted her own Target basket...

 ...and she found what she wanted!

Addie is such a sweet heart...she let me borrow Peppa Pig for my kitchen window, cause Peppa has a British accent and Addie knows how much I love a British accent!

Dinner...

Baked chicken, bake potato and cauliflower and tomato salad.

Sunday-Christmas down South!

We spent the weekend with the grandchildren and their parents to celebrate Christmas! Stacy and John had a beautiful Christmas tree...Marley spends most of his resting time underneath it.  Thankfully he is content to just sleep and not climb.

 Zoey is in her usual spot....supervising.

Addie the red nose granddaughter...

Too many presents!

 Connor was thrilled with his new suitcase...he wanted to know what he needed that for!

 Presents from Uncle Chris and grand-aunt Alison...

 Gift card from Uncle Chris...

 Feed the Pig...

 

 Connor playing with his half assembled gyroscope...
