Christmas Day


Christmas began very early this morning. Nora woke up at about 6:30 and when I got her back to sleep the big girls were downstairs holding their wrapped gifts from Santa. They begged to open them. I got a reluctant Paul out of bed and once we both had our coffee we opened the presents while Nora was sound asleep. She got to open hers a couple of hours later.
As soon as we were finished opening presents I had to prepare the turkey for Christmas lunch. This is the first year that I was solely in charge of this task. In years past I was either at mom's or she was here with me to do it. Well it turned out great. I even made homemade pan gravy after a phone call to mom for help. It was delicious.

Later that day the big girls and I went to the movies to see Alvin and the Chipmunks. That was the first time I have ever been to the movies on Christmas Day.
What a wonderful day!
