The presents are open, the turkey is in the oven...and I'm exhausted- I didn't even cook the turkey myself, but after a late night of playing Santa and the excitement of opening gifts, I'm ready for a nap. I have a house full of people and I'm coordinating bath towels and showers. Fa La La La!
The beautiful turkey came from a local restaurant that will cook the turkey for you!! It looks perfect and I could easily pass the thing off as my own, but there's no mess! It's awesome! There will be fire-roasted yams with brown sugar and cranberries along with stuffing and mashed potatos!! The only thing I manged to do on my own were the cookies, chocolate chip and sugar cookie cutouts- I can't even say I did thoses on my own- my 5 year old daughter was much more creative than I was!
I have six extra people and 2 extra dogs. Honestly it's not as bad as it sounds, now there are other people here to entertain my 5 year old!
Now I'm off to see the Alvin and the Chipmunks movie "Chipwrecked" seriously how did I get roped into this one! All the other adults are going to see Sherlock Holmes and the George Clooney movie. Why am I going to see "Chipwrecked"? Because I'm a mom!
Merry Christmas! I survived!!
