I have to keep this short this evening because I am TIRED!  We had Rich's side of the family over this evening for a Christmas get-together.  I think that everyone had a great time!  We had lots of food, opened gifts, and had a good visit.  This is what I made this evening:

Chocolate Meringue Pie

BBQ Cocktail Sausages

Meatballs in Sauce

Fudge

Cocktail Shrimp

Chicken Broccoli Braid

Ham & Cheese Braid

Fresh Fruit Salad

Chex Mix

Cheese Ball with Crackers

If you couldn't find something to eat at my house this evening, you weren't looking!  I took a bunch of pictures, but I haven't uploaded any of them yet.  I will do that tomorrow.  My brother & sister-in-law got me a nice set of canisters with scoops & my father & mother-in-law got me the book "Natural Cures They Don't Want You To Know About," a jewelry box, a key finder setup, some fridgie magnets, money to get more stuff I want, a nice fruit basket for the family, and I am sure I am missing something...I will go through everything again tomorrow.  So tired!

Anyway, the best part was seeing everyone and just having a really good visit.  I love my in-laws so much and it just made my day to have them over for some fun.  It wouldn't have mattered to me if we had gifts or not.  I'm heading to bed, but I will write more tomorrow and post some pictures.  Goodnight!
