My family and I celebrated Christmas early so that we all could be together. We had a lot of fun and ate some scrumptious food.

The menu

Macaroni and Cheese
Fried Chicken
Vegetables
Cole Slaw
Deviled eggs
Chicken Gizzards
Savory Yukon Potatoes
Pasta Salad

My mother-in-law made tasty breads and cookies.

Dessert menu

Peanut Butter cookies
Pecan Balls
Walnut cookies
Sugar Cookies
Chocolate Chip Cookies
Oatmeal Raisin Cookies
Boston Bread
Pumpkin Bread

Didn’t I say it was a tasty menu.

As the years go by I realize that it’s not about the gifts it’s about the love of having your family and friends around you that matters most.  Gifts fade but strengthening relationships is what will last.

Merry Christmas!
