Christmas 2015 was a good one. We decided to stay home all day, which was nice (we most times go out to see a movie that opens on Dec 25th each year.)\

Our morning started early, I was up before sunrise, and each child awoke one after the other, until just my hubby was still asleep. We got down our stockings and just had some fun.

Eventually the whole family and the sun were all up. We finally got to “Open the Presents” time. This is always a grand event, such promise and mystery and surprise, or not, but always a good feeling about “what is to come” and the rest of the day is why we usually go to see a new movie at the theatre.

This year we built LEGO, played Video Games, setup electronics, and just had fun with our new stuff, drank eggnog, kept the fireplace roaring, and had a smorgasbord of what was made for Christmas Eve Dinner the night before: The Christmas holiday is best making the big feast on the day before Christmas, and just re-heating what needs it the next day, informal eating for Christmas Day, free to play and do what one wants, very little kitchen duty. 🙂
