Yesterday was Christmas.  We had a good time.  Naturally baby was more interested in playing with the boxes and wrapping paper and ribbons than the actual presents!  I knew that was going to happen, but hubby was very surprised by it!  I keep telling him that the baby is too young to really understand what is going on yet but I guess he doesn’t believe me.  I know that the first couple of Christmases are fun to watch the baby, but that the baby really doesn’t understand that gifts are happening!

In the afternoon we had Christmas dinner next door at mother-in-law’s place.  She had invited the entire family to dinner.  We took over some apple and pecan pies and ice cream.  We let her use our oven to cook some of her casseroles – we love her corn pudding and sweet potato casseroles!  It was nice to see all of the brothers and sisters and cousins, etc.  There were no major food spills, no disasters.  It was a good day.  I hope yours was too!
