It’s the day after Christmas, one of my least favorite days of the year.

Our Christmas holidays were spent with both sides of our families.

Fajitas

Jason’s family tradition is to eat Fajitas on Christmas Eve. I look forward to these every year!

Jason’s grandmother reads the Christmas story from the book of Luke prior to handing out presents.

We love taking family group photos. Its fun to see how everyone’s changed throughout the years.

On Christmas Day, we all enjoyed a batch of homemade Pumpkin Pie Cinnamon Rolls for brunch.

Mid-day, Jason and I opened our gifts to each other…and the doggies opened theirs, too. Madalynn and Pixie remembered gifts being put under the tree and they were ready! It was hilarious watching Madalynn with this bone…she didn’t know what to do with it at first!

Traditional Christmas Food

We had traditional Christmas Day food at my parent’s house and it was SO good (and yes, my eyes were way bigger than my stomach)!

After having our fill of food, we played a rousing game of Mall Madness. It had been YEARS since this game was played and we had a lot of fun with it!

My brother won! He’s an excellent shopper.

I hope you had a wonderful Christmas! Only 364 days to go!

How did you spend your Christmas? What did Santa bring you?

  3. OMG, I LOVED Mall Madness! I had that game when I was a kid. I don't know what ever happened to it. My mom probably sold it at a garage sale when we got older!

    Looks like you had a great time with family!

  5. I spent my holidays with family and friends. Now today seems so plain and boring, kind of a let down.
