Katie's Christmas












Christmas morning was all about Katie. Actually, it was afternoon when we opened presents. We are enjoying the last few years when we can sleep in without kids banging on our door with excitement at 5am.

It's fun to have a child to share the Christmas with, even though she had no clue what was happening, nor did she care.
We hosted Christmas dinner with the Popes, Castles, and Worthens. Followed by, you guessed it, a movie at the theater. I brought the ham, potatoes, yams, jello, and decorated the table. We had leftovers for a few days. It was a happy day.

Graham Cracker Houses








We made gingerbread houses at the Umblebees Christmas party. It has become a tradition to make these each year. Jonathan's house was an abstract work of art that defies description. My house was titled "Santa's Vacation Home" in Florida. I attempted to make palm trees from M&Ms and tootsie rolls.
