I hope you had a good one...

We did..it's a lot of work hosting at your house, isn't it? Brad and I were tired before everyone even got there..lol

I tried my hand at some floral design..lol.. I always find myself stressing over centerpieces for some reason? The store had a not so good selection of flowers the day before, so I went with orange roses..I got that container at an estate sale for $3..it's perfect for a low centerpiece..turned out pretty good..

and for the "kid's table", I ran out of the roses, so found some fake leaves that I had and made this..lol..got that container at a thrift store for a few bucks too..

Brad bought a smoker to cook the turkey in..he was a little nervous about it being his first time "smoking" anything..and we had no back up plan..lol..but it was awesome! and it looked very pretty on my vintage transferware turkey platter :)

I wish we could all fit at one table, but we can't..so Aunt Cici and Uncle David always choose to sit at the "kid's table"..lol

For some reason, I only took pictures of the men?

and poor Ace had to eat out of the garbage..lol..yeah, right..he just got busted!

Thankful for this little family of mine :)

Now, let's get this Christmas thing started!
