Hi everyone! I hope you are enjoying your holiday vacation! I have been mostly relaxing and trying to stay warm during the cold days!





For Christmas, I made a roasted chicken and had a fantastic dinner!It was a little burnt, but delicious!















We also hung our stockings and waited for Santa Claus to bring presents and candy!











Overall, it was a nice holiday but I'm looking forward to going back to work and seeing everyone!
