On The Day of Christmas

I crashed.  :)
Busy, busy weekend.  Christmas Eve morning we celebrated as Christmas morning.  The gift opening took way longer than usual because of the little munchkins this year.  They had a blast opening their gifts.  Then I made 2 kinds of french toast, eggs, sausage & bacon for a late breakfast.  Then some basic vegetation and then prep of the holiday foods for the Christmas Eve dinner.  Tried a new recipe; corn pudding.  It was very tasty and went well with the ham dinner.  More gift opening; again major lengthening of the time involved.  The little guys fell asleep about 1/2 way in.
Peyton hadn't been feeling good for the past couple days.  Diarrhea, lethargy and slight fever and runny nose.  Then he started to get a bumpy rash.  When we got home last night we looked up the symptoms on the Internet.  Yikes, it seemed like he may have had Meningitis.  We decided to take him to ER since he wouldn't be able to go to the Dr. or anything till Maybe Monday or even Tuesday.  And the possibility of Meningitis was quite frightening.  The docs examined him thoroughly and felt that he has a virus due to the type of bumps and the fact that is lethargy was "on and off."  Thank God!
Up this morning later than usual for the lad to open his "Santa" gifts.  In the afternoon we went to see the movie, "We Bought a Zoo."  Very good movie.  A+++  I loved it & highly recommend the watching of said movie.  Then home to veg.   Watched the traditional "Christmas Story."  Sarah cooked tenderloin, scallops and twice baked potatoes.  Yumm!  Then we just had a surprise door bell ditch complete with pumpkin pie.  Thanks Lisa & Robbie, Jo-Jo and Bill!

Yikes, no wonder you crashed today. Hmm...not sure when I can do that. Glad Peyton was okay. Hope he feels better tonight.
