Christmas Day

Christmas Day was full of fun and cheer. Santa found us at the new house and we had BOTH grandmas there for Christmas morning...the kids loved it! Katie really got it this year and was soooo excited and overwhelmed by the day. Liam was such fun to watch as every gift was THE best gift. We also hosted Christmas dinner, and although I didn't get any pictures from the evening we had a great time, all 18 of us! We shook things up with a Proctor dinner - bacon wrapped and raosted turkey, basted in maple syrup and stuffed with apples, onions and garlic, maple and bacon carrots, carmalized brussel sprouts, rosemary roasted baby potatoes, Grammy Mo's stuffing, layered salad and for dessert apple and cranberry crisp and Grandma's homemade (from scratch) lemon meringue pie. Everyone got out on the snow mobiles for a ride before dinner and work up their appetites. It was really a great day for us all.
Full stockings, hung with care - can't wait til we have a mantle next year!

A full Christmas tree with goodies for all
(Katie, Liam, Mommy, Daddy, Grandma, Grammy, Uncle Justin & Auntie Crystal)

Gifts from Santa - train table (Santa even set up the train stuff they already had), and a little wrapped gift for each of them
