Christmas Eve

Mom has been busy cooking and preparing for dinner this evening.  Dad and I, from time to time have been allowed in the kitchen to help.  Each year, we keep saying that the dinner will be smaller but we have learned that this thought is quickly forgotten.

Angie is not feeling well so she was not able to have dinner with us tonight.  When Mike arrived, he said, "I thought we were going to eat less this year."  Dad responded, "Mike, we are not having corn this year!"  OK, so we had veges and dip, shrimp, turkey, ham, mashed potatoes, gravy, sweet potato casserole, broccoli casserole, cranberry salad, hot rolls and three pies.  It was very good but more than adequate!
