Christmas

We  had a wonderful, action packed Christmas!  Lots of family, wonderful food, laughs, and good times.  We had Christmas Eve dinner at our house.  We had enchiladas and tamales.  They were delicious.  The little ones opened up their gifts from us.
We all gathered again on Christmas morning, and shared a wonderful breakfast together.  We feasted on ham and fresh scrambled eggs.  Bacon, sausage, french toast stratta, and gorilla bread!  No calorie counting on Christmas!
Everyone got a fun gift or two.
Santa left me this.
The kids had fun playing with their new toys.
In the afternoon we went to my brother's house where the rest of the family was gathering.  We ate yet another wonderful meal.  It was a wonderful day.  We ended it by going to see We Bought A Zoo. I may have snoozed a bit during the movie.  I am told.  Today we did nothing.  It will take me a week to recover from December.  I am looking forward to the new year!!!!   See  you soon.  Night-Night!
XO  Kris

Good family, good food and good fun! And who's supposed to count calories during the holidays? I'd like a piece of that gorilla bread with my first cup of coffee right now!!

Enjoy the cleanup!

Best,
Bonnie

Hi Kris, It sounds like you had a wonderful Christmas; I love seeing your pics. We had a great evening last night but I've got a bit of a cold so feeling pretty lazy. We may go to the movies later today.
Have a great Tuesday.

How lucky you are to get to spend Christmas with all of your family...I think that's rare these days! Cute wagon santa brought...you will be able to collect TONS of eggs in that thing! :)
The last two days I have been in my sweats and slippers...trying to recover from Christmas! I don't have a lot of motivation!

It is hard to recover from the whirlwind of Christmas! Sounds like you had a fun one though. The gorilla bread looks good, we always called it monkey bread and I love it. I haven't had it in years. Get some rest! xo.

Mmm oh that bread. I can just smell the calories coming my way. Love your new wagon. You guys always seem to have such a great time. Glad all went well.

It all sounds and looks wonderful. I have been known to doze a little at a movie too, haha. My grands are wanting to see that movie too. Was it good? Or is that why you were dozing, haha?? I am needing a little rest too.. ; )

Hi Kris, Oh yes, I've about eatn myself into oblivia. Not slowing down any to soon either. lol! Looking forward to the New Year. Getting the house in order and trying to eat healthy. I love the Chritmas decor, but also love getting it all put away. It makes your home feel so uncluttered. At least for a while. lol!

Hi Kris, your enchilada party looked like fun (cute apron you got). Such a wonderful sounding festive weekend you had. That's you without make-up?? So naturally pretty you are! Hope you've recovered a bit and can hit some sales at Michaels and or Joanns!
