Merry Christmas!

Yesterday, Christmas Eve, was refreshing! No busy, big meal to prepare. No rushing around. The day was spent casually baking some cookies, popping meatballs in the crockpot, mixing up some snacks, and taking it easy. After a beautiful church concert we came home to wrap presents and eat. Then it was off to bed.

Wait, no midnight wrapping while watching the 5th run of "A Christmas Story"? Nope {said while smiling}.

Today, Christmas was another laid-back day. Oh, sure, we had a crazy-fun morning. Who wouldn't when your son is thrilled to his eyeballs with more Legos and your daughter is in heaven with her frills and books!

After the frenzy of wrapping paper being ripped and bows being saved {despite the 300 bows still in the wrapping box}, we settled ourselves for a nice winter's...er, lounging. No napping yet. Legos had to be built by MrC, Odyssey and Duggar trivia had to be absorbed by Catz, hoop earrings had to be worn by yours truly, and a Kincade puzzle was long overdo to be solved by Hubby.

The Christmas music played in the background while four happy and relaxed people played, snacked, and laughed together. Ahhh. This is Christmas.
