Yes, we did! We had a very nice time leading up to Christmas. On Christmas day we got up a little late, had some home-made muffins while we opened out stockings, and then opened presents. I got several art supplies and tools to use in my latest artistic endeavors, and John got some electronic goodies and things for the new car. We had a very nice roast for dinner - we decided to have a simple dinner, instead of the whole, involved stuffed turkey thing, and it was perfect - rib roast, mashed potatoes, white corn and rolls. Yummmm!

Great ham dinner xmas eve and a delicious prime rib on xmas. Mom seems to like her thick floor pads for her kitchen (Wellness mats). Dadโ€™s present came back with me to get โ€˜finishedโ€™, got him some vent shades for his new truck and they still need painted to match. Brother and I both got mobiledocks for the tablets we got last year, among other things. All in all, was a very good time. โ€“ Stevo ---

Mine was pretty good - very relaxing. After Christmas we got to meet Johnโ€™s grand-niece on Saturday. Sheโ€™s turning one towards the end of January, and is an absolute delight!
