And what a mess is left behind! The Chinese tornadoes ripped through their packages early Christmas morning. Okay...Mom insisted on a little semblance of order. We started opening one present at a time starting with the youngest and working our way to the oldest. I caught a lot of smiles as the girls opened their gifts. Ah, that always makes Mom happy because it must mean I made the right purchases! The "sticks" are Jahng Bong or a staff. Weapons for self defense in Taekwondo.
After all the present were open the girls cleaned up all the wrapping paper and they sit down to work on projects they had received or play with some of the games they got. Time for Mom to head off for a little winter's nap! I had every intention of baking a turkey for Christmas. Of course, when we went looking for a fresh turkey all we could find were frozen ones. Well, I know you can thaw a turkey out quickly, but we compromised and bought a turkey breast from Honey Baked Ham & Turkey instead. Not nearly as good as my turkey but we managed to eat it all up!
I would like to wish a Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year to the readers of my blog!!
And Yes that is a pink gun in some photos. The girls received a 22 that they will be learning to shoot soon.
