Things about my life.
Kate hooked us up with an awesome Christmas dinner. We had a ham she’d been cooking in the crock pot since before the rest of us came downstairs this morning. Add to that stuffing, ambrosia, spinich souflle, and rolls, and then pumpkin pie for desest, and you’ve got a fine meal on your hands!
