I got to Zach & Sarah's at about 6:30 on Christmas morning. Everyone was asleep but Sarah. We unloaded my car, stuffed stockings and started breakfast.
Zach and the kids woke up around 7. It was a super fun morning! Cassidy loves opening presents but gets bored quickly. I think she opened her last gift at about 6:30 PM! We had a really nice, peaceful morning.
Zach's dad and wife stopped by for Christmas dinner. It was nice for Zach to get to spend part of Christmas with his dad. I think this might have been the first time in about 10 years.
Christmas dinner was awesome. Sarah, Zach and I started something new at Thanksgiving and decided we'd try it again at Christmas. We all pitch in and make dinner. Zach was in charge of the ham -- he did a brine. The ham was yummy -- very tasty and moist. Sarah did the corn and bread and I handled the scalloped potatoes and apple/cranberry compote. It's really fun to all be in the kitchen together making sure that we're following the recipes correctly!
Yes, Sarah they really do make cream cheese in 3 oz packages. We almost had the cheesiest cream corn ever -- Sarah wanted to add four-8 oz pkgs (32 oz) of cream cheese instead of four-3 oz pkgs (12 oz). Like I said, good thing we're all in the kitchen together to keep an eye on one another!
Santa came!

I think the harmonica (.99 cents) was her most favorite gift!
Pretty sure it's not her Mommy's favorite.

Cheese!
