Merry Christmas!

This nice nativity scene is in the front yard
of a down-the-street neighbor's home.
(And a lot of blue for MW Blues)

This year our group came on Sunday before Christmas. We ate upstairs in the game room. I'll not name them, but from left to right are a DIL, two sons and a daughter, SIL, my empty spot, Mrs. Jim, son, friend of granddaughter, and the tree granddaughters.

Missing are the parents of KP who would come later, a granddaughter who couldn't come, a DIL who couldn't come, and a grandson and his wife who live in California. KP spent the night with us and went to church in the morning with us.

From left to right:
The Sunday Christmas dinner. I have a couple of ham slices hiding under the turkey. Mr. Jim's menu is available upon request. We had turkey, ham, cornbread dressing, candied sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes, cranberries, fruit and lettuce salads, green beans with browned onion fries, rolls and bread, three different kinds of pie, and chocolate brownies.
After Christmas dinner. The next day I made me a nice turkey sandwich and leftovers plate. The olives were not served on Sunday. I had already taken a bite of the turkey sandwich to make sure it would be good.
Right away after Christmas dinner. The bunch went downstairs to relax and exchange a few gifts. Some of us were still cleaning our plates upstairs.

We had a very nice family Christmas get-together this year. We try to have the kids up every year, we miss a few. And not everyone can always be here either every time.

If you want to post a MidWeek Blues picture, go get directions from Rebecca by clicking on the logo picture on the right. She has a Mr. Linky and good directions . Just do what I did. .
Or do less. All she requires is a BLUE PICTURE, you don't have to write.

Merry Christmas to all down there. Our Christmas is going to get 'stormed' out. We are beginning ona three day blizzard.
