Christmas Eve 2018

Here's a little recap of our Christmas 2018!

First night...Sunday...after a dinner of parmesan chicken, hash brown casserole, corn and dinner rolls.

Christmas Eve day. The adults went for sushi for lunch. :) Ahh!

So, so very good!

My sister, Rachel, and brother-in-law, Adam.

After sushi, we took the kids to see The Grinch at the theater. Fun times!

Addie on the end, Kylee, Autumn, Summer, Jack and Rachel.

It was actually my favorite of all the grinch movies I have seen!

After the movie, we went to a Christmas Eve service at Granite Hills Baptist Church. It was raining when we went in and snowing when we came out. We didn't get much accumulation though.

After the service, we did a Grinch themed meal for dinner on Christmas Eve.

We had cheddar smoked sausages (AKA: Our roast beast sandwiches) and nacho cheese and chips (green tortilla chips topped with nacho cheese and green jalapenos :).

We had a green punch with sherbet to drink.

We also made Grinch kabobs. A green grape topped with banana slice and strawberry for the Santa hat. (I forgot the mini marshmallow for the topper!)

My sister made homemade red and green Christmas cookies for dessert - sooo good!

A fun memory, simple and easy! Kid friendly too! Try it for your next kid's Christmas event. :)

Happy 45th Birthday, Eric!

Happy birthday to my husband, Eric! He turns 45 today. I am surprising him with tickets to a Miami Dolphins game in Miami. I got him tickets one other time years ago when we lived in Reno. We drove to Oakland to see the Dolphins play the Raiders. I think this will be a great memory for him and a home game too! Happy birthday, babe!

Recipe: Chicken Parmesan
