Our meal was Cornish Game Hens, Mixed Vegetables, Mashed Cauliflower, Chicken Gravy, Cranberry Sauce, Italian Bread, Cinnamon Raisin Bread, Wine and Hot Tea. All very yummy!
After that scrumptious meal, Steve spent this afternoon putting together the final touches for what will be our niece’s Christmas gift. They’ll be here on New Year’s Day. That will be our real Christmas. I. AM. SO. EXCITED! [smile] What’s he making? My husband is a self-taught skilled craftsman. Anything he undertakes he does it well. He’s very much the Renaissance man. He is constructing a primitive archer’s bow pull rate of about 12 lbs. and an arrow set, complete with hand stitched leather quiver, arm guard and tab. And the doggone thing is fantastic to behold! It shoots like a dream (I’ve already given it some trial runs). Nope, no pictures. Not yet. I am snapping them as he works his magic and will share those after Niece has the gift. So more treasures to be shared at a later date.
Merry CHRISTMas y’all!

I loved seeing your meal and pictures of both of you too. We have had quiet day too. Our regular Wed. service is going on as always and we will go to that shortly. For me then, it is over, and I am looking toward 2014.
ReplyDeleteWe will have a simple meal, it will be roast beef/rice/corn. The kids have spent the day playing outside with their toys. It's been lovely.
ReplyDeleteSteve looks so different with a beard! Lovely pictures with a lovely couple! Merry Christmas!!!
