Christmas Dinner

So the weekend after Christmas we were finally able to celebrate the holiday. Santa brought Mahkii countless presents including tons of new toys and clothes plus a few things for his room! Mike got Angela a sofa for the theater room and a digital video camera to capture all of Mahkii's wonderful firsts. Angela got Mike a 65" TV for the media room and an I-Pod for all his great tunes! We hosted our first Christmas dinner ever and it was a success. We had Mike's parents and sister, Aunt Patty, Uncle Tom, Danny and Helen over. We served a delicious Christmas ham, sweet potatoes, salad, steamed veggies, dinner rolls, broccoli and cheese and of course apple pie for desert provided by Granda and Grandmac. Despite not yet having a dining room table or a finished formal dining room we made it work quite nicely with fold out tables and decorative ribbon on the wall where the chair-rail will someday be placed! Angela missed her family back in California terribly this year, more so than other years, this being the first holiday with Mahkii, but all in all the day was a great success and quite enjoyable. We will post some pictures soon we promise!
