Lily and I went to bed late as we were prepping for Christmas, but Lily was up early prepping for brunch. I have felt very tired lately and I stumbled out of bed at 7:45, managed a shower and made my way upstairs. My dad, Suzanne and Jere had already arrived (not wanting to hold of the present opening). First we all walked Basil around the block and then we got to the present opening.
After we all opened presents, Lily and I finished prepping brunch while everyone enjoyed watching “Timmy Failure: Mistakes Were Made” which my dad and Suzanne suggested. It was so funny!
At one point Mary disappeared for multiple hours to play with her art studio lego set that my dad and Suzanne gave her. My dad and Suzanne picked up Georgia and then we all had brunch together.
Brunch was amazing. We had avocado toast, grapefruit salad, popovers, chia pudding, and sausage.
Ammon loved his iron-man costume!
After brunch, my dad and Suzanne took off and Jere stuck around. I also took Georgia home when she started to feel like she needed rest. When I got back, Jere helped me clean up and then we puzzled together which was so much fun. After puzzling, it was time for round two. Lily was already in the kitchen prepping dinner and so I helped.
For dinner, my mom and Jay joined the party. We had spoon beef from Harmons, turkey, mashed potatoes, mushroom gravy, salad with squash and pomegranate and cranberry sauce. It was delicious!
When everyone left, Lily and I did our final clean-up and we relaxed while watching “Knives Out: Glass Onion”. It was delightful!
