That sounds like a WONDERFUL Christmastime!
We will be home (for first time in several years, we usually travel to grands)...but, they/kids will be HERE, this Christmas!! Cousins, neices and nephews coming in town, too.
We’ll see everyone, at some point, on Christmas Day.
I am getting more excited, by the minute!!
I think I’ve baked enough goodies for the entire neighborhood...kind of like sissy!
I’m now baking a pumpkin pie and cheesecake.
Jane, please message me your address and we will swing by....
I wish!!
Sounds like you are in for a wonderful Christmas.
So happy for you.
wow ...how good is that....hallmark worthy...family is great...
Friday we went to a “cousins” get together...adults only...bring a dish
My blood aunt married an italian and they kept having kids...and the kids kept having kids...
It was great.
I went to one of these cousin’s weddings a couple of weeks ago.
The photographer asked that everyone who is a descendant(and spouses) of my aunt and uncle, please line up for a picture.
There were approx. 200 guests + a wedding party of 20. Had to be 50-60 in the picture. (Not all that could have been in the picture were at the wedding either) The rest of us who didn’t make the cut were mostly my aunt & uncle’s siblings and their kids.
My aunt was Irish and of course, we Irish are “tolerated”...too funny.
What I do have coming is 100 indoor snowballs. It’s 50 degrees here(Illinois burb west of Chicago) and will stay this way for a while.
The family doesn’t know it yet, but we will have a snowball fight...
and best of all we don’t forget the reason for the season...
It sure sounds like we have been blessed...
Tomorrow, Jane, I have a chocolate pie and about four casseroles to make. I better get an early start and have some coffee!
Sounds like a wonderful Christmas with wonderful goodies!
