had Christmas dinner with the kids tonight… we’d decided to have a non-traditional meal, except there would be stuffing, lol…

we had presents, decorated gingerbread house pieces, opened Christmas crackers, enjoyed a delicious steak and lobster dinner with stuffing muffins, twice-stuffed potatoes, mushrooms, and salad… finished up with gingerbread pieces that had a lot of icing and candies on them, lol…

on Christmas Day I will fly to Ottawa to spend time with my daughter, son-in-law and his mom… looking forward to meeting her for the first time;-)…

as I remember many wonderful Christmas traditions, from the years while my beloved was with us to the years since he’s been gone, I look forward to new traditions we may start this year…

memories and moments;-)…
