It’s Christmas morning and I couldn’t sleep so I got up at 5:20am, finished my Santa ornaments, made a pot of coffee, searched the Internet for Pumpkin muffins that use canned pumpkin, and watched the sun come up.
It’s 6:15 am and I am watching Christmas morning come alive…
The lights are on and there are no small children pitter pattering about yet…
The stockings are stuffed and waiting…

There are pumpkin muffins waiting to be enjoyed…

There are little Santa ornaments waiting to be presented…

Aren’t they cute?


Here is the back. Signed and dated by me! I hope they like them…
These are two of the angel ornaments I made last year from old Christmas cards…

Do you have a gnome in your home? He is awake and waiting for the guests to arrive…

Melissa, Ryan, Kristian and Kayla arrive…

Feasting on turkey, mashed potatoes and gravy, macaroni and cheese, spinach quiche, rolls and sparkling cider…
Time for dessert. Melissa brought a pumpkin pie from the 99 Cent store and found out that it wasn’t baked! Good thing I bought a Hershey Crème pie too!

Kayla is exhausted after a long Christmas day. She loves her pillow pet…

Proud Grandma! Melissa made Kayla’s pretty bow…

Proud Mama and Grandma…
A beautiful sunset at the end of another beautiful day…

Sasha thinks so too.
Happy holidays to all and joy to all of our family and friends. May the new year bring you lots of Love and Peace and Light.
