It was surprising to me that it took some effort to keep up with the Christmas traditions with Aaron being gone. Luckily there are a few kids counting on me to stay up on my game.
Here are the kids making/decorating a gingerbread house.
here's the end result of that project
A tradition that we adopted from the Petersen side of the family is that on Christmas Day you get to pick whatever you want to eat into one giant "Awesome Meal". It can literally be anything. We usually do this on Christmas to maximize laziness so no one has to cook but we are going to a friends tomorrow so "Awesome Meal" was tonight.
Menu included: orange chicken, popcorn shrimp, mini quiches, cougar gold, cuties/clementines, pizza rolls, egg-nog, and cream puffs.
Oh! there I am. Hope your Christmas was as merry even if it was less fattening.
Love the idea - not sure about the choices - we would be stuck with macaroni and cheese, tomato soup, and cereal I am afraid! Your dinner looks pretty good!
ReplyDeleteEggs rolls are my favorite!
