(The photo is the fresh veggie tray I made for our Christmas gatherings. I copied the idea from a friend, and it went over very nicely. Wish I still had one to munch on now!)DMIL spoiled us rotten!! We wouldn't have had such a nice Christmas without her. Unfortunately, she isn't feeling well, and she headed home early. We're hoping and praying she'll feel better soon, and hopefully we'll see her next weekend.
DS10 got the one thing he put on his Christmas list, Modern Warfare 2. G-Ma also got him a t-shirt with the game on it. I'm predicting he'll want to wear nothing else but this t-shirt the next few weeks.
DS14 pretty much got everything on his list as well. Of course they've been spending most of their time in the Man Cave, gaming. I expected this, but DH & I have no energy to do anything else, so for now this works.
Last night DH & I did try out our new family present, Wii Resort. We played Frisbee golf and it was a lot of fun. Of course it doesn't take much energy to flick your wrist. LOL!
Christmas Eve was great, having DH's aunt's family over, along with G-Ma, but I was so tired by the end of the night. I suppose getting up at 4:00am caused that.
Christmas Day was awesome too and with my sister hosting my family's gathering, it was wonderful not having to travel more than 3 blocks away. We're used to having to travel during Christmas in order to be able to see extended family.
I'm glad we've had a couple of days after Christmas to recoup. All the partying has left us feeling run down. I'm giving myself one more day of rest, and then I'll try to get back into a routine.

Veggie tray looks yummy.
My son got Modern Warfare 2 too. Does your son have X Box Live? If he does + is interested I can send you my DS10's user name + they could chat.
Always need a few days of recovery time after the holidays. Enjoy your rest day.
I love veggies trays and they are so healthy for us and yummy. Good to hear that you had a lovely time with your family this Christmas. Yes, now its time to recovery from it all lol. Enjoy your Sunday.
The veggies look wonderful and the presentation is quite festive! Glad you have had a great Christmas!! Rest is good.
How fresh does the meal look like! Now it's time to eat vegetables and light things when the Christmas season starts being over.
What are the traditional New Year's things to eat there? I think I'll make potato salad and just have fried sausages; some very simple stuff.
Love veggie trays! Sounds like your Xmas was a good one:o) Sorry MIL was sick. I hope she feels better soon. :o)
