Good Morning, all. In for some early OT before heading to the airport, picking up my brother and driving us to where we grew up. Safe travels to all and enjoy time with friends and family!
Having my family over today for our Christmas, my older sister is in from Missouri they moved there last year. But she does come up for almost everything anyway. :lol:
We had our Christmas yesterday (my Wife and Daughters and there boyfriends)
Monday we are going to entertain a couple of friends and I'm making a huge (14.5 lbs) Prime Rib Roast, it's a tradition now for us for the last 3 years.
getting some very fine snow right now and it looks to be we could get a total of 3 inches.
Everyone have a great holiday and if you're traveling be safe.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from the Radkes
Good morning all. Slept in a little after waking up early to let the dog out. It was a Jayme and I got voted on hosting Christmas Eve. Last year we went to her mom's house and my mom, sister, her aunt and uncle, and some of her cousins were all there. We didn't even have a choice this year. Jayme stopped by her mom's house and was told by her brother that they had voted that it would be at our house this year. One of the downfalls of having bought a house, everybody wants to do everything over there. Not sure what the evening will entail though. I know we are going to have a few different soups available.
Good afternoon....just got safely back from visiting the in-laws in Maryland!
For those with kids, hope everything you have to put together goes smoothly!!!!
