Christmas Recap

I hope your holidays have been fabulous, and will continue to be so right through New Year! For now, I would like to share some of my favorite Christmas moments with you.

Moment One:

My daughter received a stapler and tape dispenser for her new desk. I am one who believes in "completing the deal" so she also received a roll of tape and a box of staples. Both of which I wrapped as additional stocking stuffers. Here she is opening the package of tape, and laughing. Her next words were "Tape? Who wraps tape?!?! Oh, wait, apparently my mom does...."



Moment Two:

I purchased a wooden salt-and-pepper shaker set in the shape of a mustache for my husband who, by the way, hasn't been without his real mustache since puberty. I love how my family gets my odd sense of humor.



Moment Three:

Candlelight dinner followed by candlelight dessert- featuring my "all-American" apple pie. This was my triumphant moment. Normally my pie crust is a cross between lead and wood glue. This one was flaky, crisp, and perfectly browned. Words cannot express the joy from my pie-crust victory.
