Christmas Update
We had a wonderful Christmas! It started off a little rocky on Christmas Eve. My parents came over for some hors d'oevres in the early evening. (That's NOT the rocky part!) Pokemon King had been battling a cough, but suddenly it got worse and he could not stop coughing. So, Bond took him to the emergency room. The doctors said he might have the beginning stages of Asthma. WHAT? Talk about coming from left field! He got a temporary inhaler and some steroids. (he could use those! LOL!) I took him for a checkup today and he's fine. No asthma, just keep an eye on him.
Christmas Day was great! We had our usual breakfast casserole that had been in the crockpot overnight. After breakfast, we opened our gifts. The boys got a lot of nice things, as did Bond and myself. Bond's parents came over for lunch and we opened more nice gifts. I don't know how his parents do it. For breakfast they go to one brother's house, ours for lunch and dinner for the other. What a crazy day! And they shop for 11 grandkids! Whew!
The day after Christmas we went to my parent's house to celebrate with my mom's brother and his family. We do a gift exchange with them, but we only buy one present. The girls buy a girl gift and the guys buy a guy gift. After the food and gifts, we played Bible Pictionary. It was a lot of fun, but by then Bond wasn't feeling too well. He stayed home from church the next day and I lugged all 5 boys by myself. I'm such a trooper!
I think we are all finally feeling better now! Hopefully, it will stay that way!
Hope you all had a Merry Christmas and look forward to a Happy New Year!

I can't believe your kids will eat breakfast before opening gifts! You've trained them well... You're so lucky to have my sister around - she's awesome! And what is that breakfast in the crockpot? Care to share?
We too have been battleing yuck with coughs here as well. Like the worse coughs we have ever had!
Glad you all had a great day. Thanks so much for the cookies, I need the recipe for the crispy chocolate one and I too want the breakfast casserole, how cool to come down to breakfast done!
