So Santa came down the chimney last night and filled the stockings. Everyone went to bed at a semi-reasonable time and woke up ready for Christmas! So we opened up most of the gifts and everyone seemed very happy with their haul. I know I was very happy with mine! The kids biological father came over and we opened the last of the gifts. Then everyone Skyped and called over favorite people all over the world and I made a very late lunch that consisted of breakfast. The kids retired to the X-box and engaged in a little modern warfare while the Mrs. and I sampled one of my gifts. A bottle of absinthe! Now I don't like anise but I found out I like absinthe. It is a very nice tipsy feeling without the drunky, muddle headedness of other boozes. I have a crush on a green fairy! LOL!!
So nicely tipsy we started working on pupu's and supper. It was a major undertaking that my wife pulled off with aplomb and fantastic results. Pupu's were spinach dip a sour dough bowl and french onion dip and chips. Dinner was roast duck, smoked turkey, mashed potatoes, yams, broccoli and brussel sprouts with a sparkling cider to wash it down. Desert was an egg pudding delight that was cooked by the #2 boy that was taught to him by a nice German grandpa! Thank you!! Now for a long nights sleep....after a longer night of cleaning up. Thank you Santa!!
And yes Mom I went to church last night.
