Christmas



We just finished our Christmas dinner and I have to say this year was pretty good. We had an "early" Christmas in Colorado with my sister, brother and his family. It was nice that my whole family could be together and celebrate even if it was before December 25th.
Christmas Eve we had our traditional dinner of: pepperoni bread, meat pie, holly leaves, cheese and crackers and cookies. We also had a fire and opened presents. This year I got: 32 DVDs, 29 books, money, a historical newspaper, candy and several other things. I was lucky to be able to give my family and friends presents that I really think they all liked.
We also had a white Christmas. It snowed two days ago and then we got a little more today. It was nice just to be able to look outside and see everything white without having to worry about shovelling or driving anyplace.
Today I continued watching Christmas movies on TV and listening to Christmas music and then helped make dinner. We had our traditional meal of: roast beef (prime, prime rib), Yorkshire pudding,horseradish soup, mashed potatoes, spinach ans artichokes, brussel sprouts, rolls and pumpkin cheesecake.
I am so glad that things turned out so well this year. It was a really great Christmas.
