Merry Christmas!

Hope you had a wonderful day 

surrounded by family, fun and food.

And LOVE.

We were!

The day was nice and laid back.

Jim and Sabrina came over Christmas Eve

and we did our annual trip over to see

Santa in Indialantic and then down

to the beach to see the full moon.

Which hadn't risen yet.

LOL

Back to the house for chili and rolls

and visiting and then off to bed.

Christmas morning Rod was up bright

and early, waiting for the rest off us.

We slowly straggled in, with Jim

and Sabrina finally showing up around

11:30-ish. 

Popped the turkey breast in the oven

and opened gifts.

As always, people were thoughtful in their gifts

and everything was oohed and aaahed over

and everyone was pleased.

Jim and Kyle headed into the back yard

so Kyle could teach Jim how to do some

blacksmithing. They had a good time

and Jim made a chili pepper!

Then it was time for a yummy dinner

and more sitting around the table telling

stories and jokes and laughing and

just spending family time together.

It was wonderful!

(We also managed to "watch" the Santa Claus

and Santa Claus 2... they were playing in the

background and when favorite parts came on

everybody stopped and recited the lines together.)

All in all,

it was a wonderful, happy, relaxed family day.

Hope your's was as well!
