A Day of Peace

I hope all of my readers had a wonderful Christmas day, well if you celebrate Christmas that is. Many of you remember my not so fun Thanksgiving, and for those that don't you can read about it HERE. We weren't going to do Christmas dinner at all but decided not to penalize the rest of the family for the actions of one. Well that and many of you weighed in on why we should do Christmas. We are so happy we listened to you and decided to host Christmas dinner.

We had our son and two granddaughters and our oldest granddaughters beau. We had a terrific, peaceful day of them playing poker while we cooked and then we had a great meal of fillet roast, potatoes and gravy, dressing, fresh asparagus and fresh baked bread. We then watched a terrific movie called Inception. If you've not seen this movie you should. It is a bit long, but kept all of us on the edge of our seats. Go HERE to watch the trailer.

We then had our choice of pumpkin pie, cherry pie or cheesecake with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream. Some had a little of each. Now you're talking. After that everyone moved on to the next event of their day. It was truly a very special day for hubby and I. A day without drama is an excellent day indeed. Now we are just waiting for the phone call from the oldest granddaughter telling us to show up at the hospital as the baby is on the way. We are going to be great grandparents. Wonderful.
