Bliss

The phone rang just as I stepped out of the shower.  "Hurry," the voice said.  "The kiddos are waiting to open presents."
Christmas Day began a little earlier for me as I made coffee and tackled balancing Jay's receipts from the Shop.  I was all finished by the time I got the phone call and it was soon afterward we made our way to Sonny's house to start the day together.  It's what it's all about, isn't it?  It's bliss.
We managed to get the gifts wrapped and menu planned.  They were all quickly unwrapped with happy smiles and hours of playtime.  The food was superb. Nothing was rushed, nothing was forced, and all was well.   Smiles and hugs.

 Breakfast:
Eggs, Hash Browns, Bacon, Sausage, Croissants, Berries.
Dinner:
Stuffed Artichokes
Steak
Breaded Shrimp
Broiled Shrimp
Scalloped Potatoes
Steamed Broccoli
Creamed Spinach
Tiramisu 

We couldn't keep everyone from eating the breaded shrimp as fast as we took them out of the pan!  We had to post shrimp security to make them stop stealing shrimp!  How's that for smiles!  We need to do those shrimp again, soon.
Merry, merry!
