It’s the Most Wonderful Time of Year ~Christmas 2019 ~Now a Memory ~My Christmas Day Report

Christmas Morning...
The first time we had all been together for a year and a half.
We had a wonderful time catching up.

When Hubby went out to the airport
to meet the late flight on Christmas Eve,
Amy kept me company as
I prepared an overnight coffee cake.

When it was baking, we all checked
our stockings to see what Santa brought,
and then had a light breakfast.
We needed to save room for our traditional family
Christmas meal at Great Grandma’s House.

When someone is 90 years old,
it is okay to relax and just be the hostess
while your family does all the work!
My sister-in-law was there early
to take charge of the preparations.

And then, when we arrived, I made the gravy,
Emily and Jake mashed the potatoes,
and Hubby carved the Roast.

Great Grandma really enjoyed her company.

Her table was lovely...She used her best China.
Our family gifted her with this Winter Centerpiece.

Great Grandma lives a short walk from
one of the only sledding hills in town.




We all had fun being outside and working off
some of those extra holiday calories,
and breathing in some of that cool, crisp air!

I hope you all enjoyed plenty of good food
and some outdoor activities with your family and friends.

Take care,
~Natalie
