Christmas Eve we indulged ourselves and went to the buffet at Fantasy Springs Casino. They really laid quite the spread. Wonderful seafood dishes, salads, turkey, prime rib, pork roast, chicken and all the trimmings. A place where you could order a pasta dish fixed right there. Pizza, tacos, you name it and they had it. I won’t even go into what was for dessert. We went with friends and had a wonderful time. We were so full I didn’t think I would ever want to eat again. We came home and settled down and watched Miracle on 34th Street, the older version with Maureen O’Hara.

Santa came and we must have been very good.

Christmas morning and I could not have been more surprised what I got. New place mats and table cloth, and cookbook.

It will look great. There is also a runner for the shelf you can see in the background.

A very nice surprise from Helen was this puzzle you fold it in different ways to make a different picture. We were digging through some antique stores in Coos Bay last summer and I found this treasure. Didn’t buy it but she had sent Terry back for it.

We had a great lunch with friends.

After over eating again we had a great visit. It was a wonderful day.

I had to take down our decorations early because we were moving before New Years. SONY DSC

I left these on our window until after the BCS game coming up.

Here is what our table looks like now and the back counter.
