Christmas Meal

Had my mom and two safe friends over for holiday dinner! For the first time, I got to cook and host! I made dinner and dessert for everyone and we exchanged gifts. Everything came out so unbelievably delicious!

Christmas 2018

Christmas Day happened at my mom’s house this year! Sister Patricia, brother-in-law Yusuke, and nephew Ash were staying with Mom. Sister Lindsay and brother-in-law Mike drove in to visit, and I brought friends Victor and Jeaux. Later Lindsay and Mike’s friend Ryan and Mom’s roomie David joined us.

We made cookies, had dinner, and opened gifts!
