93- Merry Christmas!!!

This post was written on time, but not posted until today.  

Merry Christmas! What a wonderful exhausting day it has been. Eating has been the theme of the day.  We started with homemade kuchen and homemade sweet rolls as an appetizer before the real breakfast.  Then we had roll ups with hash browns,  and before everyone was even done with  breakfast, we were starting lunch, with Rubin sandwiches, cake, pumpkin pie, cookies and such.  It was a day of gluttony.  We skipped the big Christmas dinner since we were all so full and had so much food that needed to be eaten. A great day if you love eating!

The day was also filled with conversation, with just being together.  Watching my the little ones interact and play.  Sitting around the room at any given time were very little people interacting with their family.  It was so much fun to watch the family connecting on a multigenerational way. 

We had opened presents on Christmas Eve so today was a day just spent together. It was a day free of most (C).  I have been surprised at how much easier it is for me to set it down, to let it go.  I have been enjoying the difference.  I am much more aware of when it is others (C) and not something I need to take on.  It was possibly the most refreshing time at home.

Merry Christmas to all!
