First Christmas

This was a Christmas of a lot of "firsts". First Christmas for n. First Christmas that k was excited that it was Christmas. First Christmas in our new home. First Christmas with overnight guests...D's brother and sister.

Christmas Eve we had dinner at Capital Seafood in Diamond Jamboree. We had enough leftovers for lunch the next day!

peking duck special
$12 Peking duck special, which we had to fight with one of the waiters to get (he wanted to charge us $24, even though there was a sign outside listing the special, and the waiter who took our order said we could get the special since it was only a few minutes before 5 p.m.)

Saturday morning we had oven baked french toast with blueberry sauce and scrambled eggs and sausage. We opened our presents. k and n received a wagon from D's parents. They like riding together.

k likes to pretend she is "working" on her new laptop:

We went to Laguna in the morning, and it was very warm outside. After the kids woke up from their naps we went to my parents' for dinner. My parents bought a Wii, so some people tried it out. (I will wait until there's less people to watch me make a fool out of myself).

My BIL made a roast and Yorkshire pudding.

My mom made the log cake that my family requests every year. D's brother made a pecan pie at our house and brought it over. Very impressive.

A sweet end to a nice day spent with family.
