~The Second Christmas~

I spent most of today in the kitchen. I was cooking for tonight's Christmas Dinner with Gregg's family, Saturday afternoon snacks with my family and Sunday afternoon dinner with church family.

I did enjoy all the cooking and it was much easier with Gregg home taking care of kid stuff!

I first started the roast for dinner. Potatoes were peeled and chopped and put in the fridge for later.

I made this yummy olive dip for Saturday/Sunday
And a cheese ball for Saturday/Sunday and some deviled eggs

Dessert for Saturday/Sunday

Stuffed mushrooms, mashed potatoes and baked corn for dinner Fri.

I even made a whole bunch of ham/cheese sandwiches to throw in the oven for whenever I needed them.

My fridge was stuffed!

We had a great visit with Gregg's family! Usually, the adults exchange $5 gifts a the kids exchange snacks. This year we all exchanged our favorite snacks. I think that went very well!

Not much needed to be cleaned up before bed since I had kept the kitchen clean all day while I was cooking! Stocking are set out and we are ready for our next Christmas!
