Very Nice, But Happy It's Over

We had such a nice Christmas.  We all got a little spoiled, it's been wonderful having Lloyd home for so many days in a row and we've eaten a lot of great food but I am glad it's done now.  This is such a busy time of year and it feels hard to keep up with everything and it's also hard on Lauryn.  Her schedule gets way out of whack when we have so much going on.  She was absolutely adorable in her Santa dress :)  Of course I have pictures, I just have to get them on the computer.  I think she really liked her special gift from mommy too!  She really wasn't interested in opening her presents though.  She was much happier trying to touch the ornaments on the tree and exploring the dining room.  She doesn't get to go in there often so she wanted to see what she'd been missing, I guess.

We went to Lloyd's parents for the big family get together yesterday.  There was tons of people and tons of food!  It was really nice visiting with everyone and they all loved seeing Lauryn walk around in her cute little outfit :)

Mom is coming over for dinner tonight.  I'm making Lloyd's favorite bbq meatballs and linguine oil and garlic for dinner.  I may have to get into the rum balls I made too :)  I'll post the recipe for those.  This year I made them with Malibu rum instead of regular.  I thought the coconut would compliment the chocolate very nicely.

I think we're all feeling a little sleepy today.  We need to catch of from the past few days.  :)
