Let’s go back in time so I can catch up on the last couple Christmas events… I know my family will want to see the pictures!
Christmas Eve was spent at my aunt and uncle’s house, as usual. It is always a wonderful, welcoming place to spend time with the family. Andy had to work until noon so we got a late start on the day. Fortunately Natalie was able to hitch a ride with Grandma and Grandpa so she would not have to miss out on a single minute. By the time we arrived she had already opened her present and was proudly displaying her baked goods:
What a cute little cookie set (made of wood, with velcro to attach to tray and icing) and baker’s outfit. I wonder where she learned to love baking?!
The kids had so much fun playing with their relatives, we are blessed with such a loving family.
The table setting looked like something from a magazine, as usual.
I made red velvet cake with fluffy frosting and toasted coconut and it was delicious. I tried so hard to wait for the coffee to brew but did not succeed.
The kids were tired after a long day and big (delicious) meal!
amazing pictures! it’s so great to see what you all were up to over the holidays.. and that red velvet cake looks insane! i don’t think i would have been able to wait for coffee to brew either!
