Christmas

Well, we're resting the day after Christmas. I had to work this morning. Not very many showed up for breakfast this am. That's o.k. Seems like I've just been tired all weekend.

Friday night we had a soup and salad night. Only 4 people showed up for supper. We knew it was going to be slow - but not sure we realized that it would be that slow. Had beef stew and turkey noodle soup. Beef stew was awesome - not a big fan of turkey noodle. Brought some home for later this week. It's supposed to be a little cooler at the beginning of the week. Our highs will only be in the 50's and lows in the 30s. Guess we need something to help us remember it's winter. We knew there weren't too many people in the campground so didn't expect too many for the Christmas potluck. The park provided the ham and turkey. We had 50 people show up. The food was awesome. Our friends from Iowa were going to join us for Christmas dinner but got the stomach flu. Decided to stay home. I, for one, was very grateful.

Some pictures from our dinner.




We had a very nice Christmas. Leisurely day yesterday morning. Made 3 side dishes for the potluck. Sue made candy and desserts. Thought that was a nice trade off. Made scalloped corn, baked beans, and mac n cheese. All good things that go with ham. Or at least we think so.

Christmas night a couple put on a variety show. Sharon went down but I couldn't get off the couch. She said they were excellent. They did some song parodies. Played a wash tub, wash board as well as mandolin, flute, kazoo, and guitar. About 30 people showed up for the mini concert.

Today, we had a few people show up for breakfast. Sundays is all you can eat pancakes and waffles. Only used 2 containers of batter.

This afternoon I'm playing on the computer. Updating maps on the gps. Catching up on the blog and facebook. This pm is football, of course, for Sharon. The "pack" are ahead - I'm grateful. Must be kind of exciting - the recliner keeps going up and down, up and down.

Left overs for dinner. Can't beat that. Looks like meatloaf, scalloped corn, and mac n cheese.

Wishing everyone a great Christmas - and a safe one - been watching the weather channel - every now and then. Stay safe.
