Christmas Eve 09

"The Stockings Were Hung By The Chimney With Care....."

The funeral potatoes ready to go on each side of the table.

Rolls piping hot from the oven!

Laughing at the table. The prime rib was delicious. Mike seasoned part of it with a rub from Kristin, and then the rest of it with a garlic/horseradish rub that was amazing.
Green beans, Sarah's salad, and some corn to round it all out.
Appetizers before: shrimp, stuffed mushrooms, wrapped cocktail weinies, crudites.
Johnny slept through dinner with Auntie Christine.

We had our traditional family program, the reading of the Christmas Story, some counsel from Dad, and then our traditional movie of Mary, Did You Know? which we did watch twice and I cried both times. Then family prayer followed by The Grinch Who Stole Christmas, (animated version)
Everyone off to bed "In Hopes That St. Nicholas Soon Would Be There"!
