Christmas Eve

Today was a full day! Owen and I ran out this morning to buy some meatloaf from Central Market for Grandpa Tex, then jogged over to Ikea, met Daddy Q for lunch, and then took a nap. O ran some errands with Daddy Q. and I finished my nap ;-) then started cooking our 4th annual Christmas Eve dinner of tamales, rice rojo, and black beans. Yummy!

Here is O waiting on Grandpa Tex, Paw Paw Mac, Grammie, and Santa (of course).
My sweet boy...

Daddy Q trying to "sell" Grandpa Tex on trying a mincemeat pie...no deal. Paw Paw Mac and Grammie tried one and liked it. Dad and I didn't "risk it for a biscuit" as Daddy Q said.

Our stockings are hung by the chimney (with care?)...

In hopes that St. Nickolaus soon will be HERE!!!!!
