A Quiet Christmas

Merry Christmas!



Our little Christmas tree.



Our Christmas picture.

E3 came to visit us for a little bit Sunday morning before heading up to Verndale. We let them open up their presents.



Ella opening her present!



Ella's new duffle coat that I think is spectacular!

Snow outside of the window.



Snow again.

Over the weekend last weekend we made korv for our Christmas Eve meal with Katy's family. We mashed potatoes, onions, pork and beef into the intestine casing.



Sunday afternoon making the korv.



Grinding away.



Katy had to get in the mix.



Picture time.



Kinda gross. Stuffing the korv.



The final product.

Christmas Eve we went to Bob and Deb's with Katy's parents and grandparents and Josh and Laura. We ate korv and meatballs, potatoes, croissants, peas, corn, lingonberry washed down with Martinelli's sparkling apple cider. Dessert consisted of a layer of chocolate and coffee ice cream with oreo cookies crumbled in the mix and on top. It was delicious.
