you could always do like we do.. we take christmas eve as our xmas and his side gets xmas day.. since everyone was divorced and remarried it made it hard for us kids to make it to all the parties.. so it just works better to have my side early and his side the next day..besides i would rather relax on christmas day after being up forever with santa claus and kids and all the toys..they get cranky and tired and are much more fun christmas eve waiting for santa to come and having dinner.. we allow them to open one gift then the rest the next morning.. then off they go to raise "he.. " at the other persons house. it is odd at first but it really does work out great

had to buy a new bottle today

I ran out yesterday and then the svedka ran out too.....

But it's all good, and my daughter realized she missed out on the party.. and sort of regrets skipping ours... so its all worked itself out

 

[FarmerChick]

Cool
new bottle, new adventures...HAHA


yes, after the party is over, a fun time had by all, then they realize they missed something good.
Hmmm...feels good to have the edge up on that one!

The sore back, the sore feet from cooking for 12 hours was all worth the looks on everyones faces. I made two different kinds of ham, and my folks stopped out. They were shocked. I guess my cooking has improved in the past decade since I last hosted christmas dinner

It was also nice having my big little sis here. She's almost 2 years older than me but has always been my lil sis because of the size difference

Being over in Iraq for a while, she didn't have a chance to eat much ham... so fun times were had by all.

Daughter got home just as we were having dessert and having a good old time!

that festive food sounds delish! a good cook always puts big smiles on company's faces..LOL
one of the fun parts about being a good cook is going thru all the experiments...and the funny ones that fail..LOL..like me making bread

dessert.....now I have to know what you made!

apple crumbcake pie

Then some pumpkin pie but that wasn't fresh at all

It was all canned.
