A WONDERFUL DECEMBER

December is a great month, It is Kevins Birthday then just the Holidays and magic in the air, I love December. We had a few people over for Kevins birthday but I must admit for some reason I have no pictures. But It was fun and he was spoiled as usual. We went out to dinner at wingers and he got a couple of Movies and his usual snowboard pass to the Canyons.

After that I attempted to throw my very first Christmas party. We had our "family" over, (our family consists of 20 or so really close friends, you know the ones you can count on for anything- yes we have close to if not more than 20 of them.) When I proposed this Christmas party to out friends they said that we should do a fancy dinner, so everyone chipped in and we had a prime rib dinner.


How many pounds of prime rib do you need for a group of 20? our prime rib was 19 pounds!! I brought it home form Costco and got out my roaster pan, it would not fit! I was in trouble! Luckily I have a friend who owns restaurant and she was gracious enough to loan me a large pan that the roast would fit in. Whew-- My camera died right after I took a couple of pictures so I dont have many, we had prime rib, roaster asparagus, funeral potatoes, fluffy jello, homemade rolls, Caesar salad, and lemonade. If I had to say so myself it turned out amazing, Once again I have to say thank you to my wonderful brother who in the busiest time of year took time out to answer all of my freak out phone calls on how to make a prime rib, My brother truly is the best!

This is a picture of the house all done up. We had 3 tables and had to move the furniture in the living room to make everyone fit! It was a blast. We then moved out the tables and moved the couches back and had a great white elephant party, the best gift of the night would have to be the gift I received. It was a lucky dogs tail. It was a real life dog tail that was sewn onto a key ring. I will have to take a picture and post it. Our friend is a vet tech and they docked a little boxers tail she kept it froze it and gifted it. It was the best white elephant gift ever! Saxon and Loucie kept smelling it trying to figure out where the rest of the dog was. it was so funny. That was our December.
Our New Year rang in at another friends house, Hopefully this year will be great and full of new and exciting things. HAPPY NEW YEARS TO EVERYONE! Now back to work and back to school and on goes life.
