My father-in-law cooked a 40 pound turkey! |
After opening presents from Santa, we drove out to the country to have Christmas Day with my in-laws. My mother-in-law really outdid herself with turkey, ham, dressing, gravy, green beans, green bean casserole, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, rolls, and a assortment of homemade pies. I chose Mamaw Billie's coconut! While the boys played with their new nerf guns and the girls enjoyed their American Girl dolls, I went for a run...SOLO.
His gun came with a tactical vest and four clips. Nerf bullets everywhere! |

Lucky for me the afternoon warmed up nicely for a four mile run. I was excited to try out my new red Sony Cybershot that my hubby got me to replace my ghetto Canon Powershot. It was a great camera, but had been dropped by a 4 year old one too many times.
Flat, West Texas road surrounded by stripped cotton fields. Not much of a shoulder to run on, but the module trucks were taking Christmas Day off so I was safe.
After my run, the adults got to open presents. While in San Antonio for the RnR, I bought me my mother-in-law bought me a Coach purse at the outlet and I finally got to unwrap it! She is so great about letting me pick out my own presents, but she always takes them away and makes me wait til Christmas. I really have the most fabulous in-laws. Christmas Day is also my father-in-law's birthday. Poor him, he never really gets much for his birthday. Hope you and your family enjoyed your Christmas.
