Goodbye 4'Oclock Foto

For the past month or so I have done this Four O'clock Foto. I always had one or two photos that just didn't go with any other post but they had their own story. So I started posting them{auto post} at 4pm everyday. It was fun but it took up time in the middle of my day that I could post about other things. So I have decided to go slow on the Four O'clock Foto.. If I have a special pic I need to brag about I will add it..but not everyday. So goodbye Four O'clock and on to other things.

Tonight I made two

chicken dinners

with one big pack of chicken and we had a great meal. To see what we had and other ramblings click on the read more link...

One night we had this pasta dish and some garlic bread..

I threw some and ham and cheese on a few pieces

and had a nice little {but think} sandwich.

A new staple for the hungry crew.

I wasn't drinking..I swear.. but I sure do look like it.. maybe it was all thee excitement... My phone was blowing up about then with twitters from Norad..the Santa tracker...

Give me that bow

As soon as the kids start unwrapping presents G's grandma says "give me that bow" Jenny {G's SIL - in purple}and I just laugh..then I stick them on Jenny's head.. We laugh the whole night about things they come up with. When his grandma wants to go to the boat the world stops or she throws a fit. AWwww..til next year.

This is another exciting thing we deal with on Christmas Eve.. G's mom has this puppy.. she is a pain in the butt.. As soon as you walk in she tinkles all over and yips all night.. I guess I caught her after G's grandma gave her some turkey...I cringe when I walk in, she drives us nuts.

I don't make turkey and I don't really eat it

so we have it at G's mom's house on Christmas Eve.

Every year he whips out the electric knife and goes to town.

I just watch and snap pics.. he loves it.

I have a thing for bird.. well most any meat.. I hate cooking meat.. it just grosses me out.. especially bird... I went years without eating turkey or chicken..Nasty..

Me (with my Gene Simmons hair- it really looked better than this in person, although sometimes I strive to look like him-he could be my brother) and my main man D on Christmas Eve. See he doesn't look like me.. Everyone says..oh he looks just like you... they must be on drugs. Oh,, he hates that camera

I had cranberries in the frig so I threw some in a bowl

and covered them with raw sugar.

I think D was going to kill me..

he took one bite then started to

spit and spatter..

I think he ALMOST threw up in the bathroom.

He then took a big drink of water and spit that out and headed downstairs

where I heard him say..

"Hey guys try these, they are REALLY goooood.!!!!"

That little shitbird.. the he laughed the whole way upstairs.

All the kids tried them and didn't care for them but atleast they tried.

The rest of the bowl is sitting on the table waiting to go to the birds..

After we made a mess with the styrofoam from 50 thousand Christmas Village houses and fake snow I gave Baxter his tub of Catnip or Kitty nip as we call it. He was flying high as a kite.

Here is making out with the empty tub...

I walked through the livingroom and said

Get a ROOM!!!!
