Well, it's finally Christmas!! Woo-hoo! All the decorating, shopping, wrapping and baking all comes down to this day. We had a great day and I must say that my arms will be VERY sore tomorrow from playing Wii boxing all day!! And I do mean all day. That's what we did - and we had loads of fun doing it too! Boxing and golf and bowling (without renting the smelly shoes!), and fishing too. All in our family room - gotta love technology!The pic above is my honey balls if you're American and struffoli if you're Italian, but no matter how you say it, they say Christmas Eve. My Nanny always made these and I tried it this year for the 1st time. They weren't as hard to make as I thought they would be, but they were harder (in texture) than I remember her's being. But at least I tried. We had a wonderful dinner at my mom and dad's house (as usual) and of course the kids got lots of gifts. A great time was had by all.
Now we await the New Year and all the promises that it holds. Who knows what it will bring? We can plan and plan and then something can come along and change everything. What I have learned is to just be grateful for what you have, and enjoy every day.
. . . And to all a good night!!
