First Christmas

For Christmas we went over to Jon and Cheri's for the day to celebrate with Cheri's side of the family. Dan, Sam, Mom and Ray also join in on all the festivities. We started out with an awesome breakfast and ended with an even better dinner. Plus there was 4 hours of opening presents since they open one at a time. This year a lot of people dropped on by to visit, at one point I think the total was 35 people.

Owens new toy from Santa.









Growing up it was a Martin tradition to have breaded and fried oysters for breakfast. I haven't had them the past few years and I thought I would continue the tradition, so I fried some up for us. They were really good.
