Run, Run Rudolph..

and bring Santa back home to the North Pole!! It looks like his bag of toys exploded in our house. Everyone here made out like bandits this year! On the 23rd, we spent the night at my Dad's place. Mom made pancit ( I was guarding what little is left in my fridge as fiercely as a dragon guarding treasure, but Hubby snuck in and demolished it). G-pops, Nana and Auntie spoiled him something fierce. He has a Little People village, garage and castle, clothes and books! He has been toting around one of the books EVERYWHERE. Christmas morning, I was not the first person awake! My sister beat me too it! Santa was very generous this year! We had my inlaws over for breakfast. I was a cooking fool. I made it super simple with sausages, french toast, hash browns o'brian,eggs scrambled well, sauteed mushrooms, and store bought muffins. I had my Mother in Law make the coffee, as I can not even operate my own coffee maker! Then it was on to my Mom's side of the family gathering. We have gotten so large as a family, that we have to rent a hall for our holiday dinner! As soon as we got there we heard " Where is the baby?" then, "Where is the Kahlua Pig?" , and THEN "Merry Christmas! How are you?" I now sit here at home amidst a sea of miscellaneous flotsam and jetsam after the Christmas Hurricane. I think I see stockings and ornaments and still wrapped presents under the toys, books, clothes and truck parts.
