Good day-after-Christmas morning everybody
Wow, so good to see Lisa and Stone drop in!!! It's been forever. And great to see Fudgey again too!

s!! Now where is little miss Starry??
I don't think I know Sue (Feb 2012)

but 'hello'
Christmas Eve was busy at work coz, you know, nothing says Merry Christmas like a good ol' shooting

After I got home from work we exchanged gifts at home (me, hubs, the boys) then went to mom & dad's for a huge breakfast (served around lunchtime

). The absolute best part of my Christmas was seeing my mom's surprise and happiness when she saw the statue!! It made me (and hubs) so very happy to see her that excited!
Then we went to MIL's for gifts there. Unfortunately she is not doing so well… her back, which gives her chronic pain, has suddenly become much, much worse. I wonder if she might have another fracture in another vertebra. She is really hurting

. She has an appointment scheduled for an MRI on the 31st. I'd appreciate a prayer for her, from those of you who pray.
By 10 last night I couldn't hold my eyes open another second

So I crashed on the couch until 5am. Thought I'd drop in and catch up on everybody here

I am glad to see that everybody seems to have had a great Christmas full of happiness and food!!
Now I'm gonna peruse Pinterest to find some new recipes for my New Year's Eve party….
(((hugs))) and

s to my beachmates!
