The families have all come to town. I'm not going to pretend that it's for us, the parents. And I know it's not really for Xmas because no one has praised Jesus ' birth . Not even once. It was to hang with the babies. It's been fantastic!
The family traditions have continued as well. We woke up at midnight to open presents and goof around. Then for the feast!
The menu:
Roast goose
Mashed potatoes with gravy
Glazed carrots
Bread stuffing
Sausage and apple stuffing
Sweet peas
Pecan pie
Buche de Noel - Yule log cake with meringue and chocolate mushrooms with dark chocolate mousse bark and marzipan leaves and berries.
Enough wine to go around twice!
It was all amazing!
But no one really cared. There were babies in the house and everything takes second fiddle.
