We had a very nice first Christmas in our new house in North Carolina.
We had Breakfast Pies http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Breakfast-Pies/Detail.aspx They were a good way to start the day as I knew everyone would be eating too much candy as the day progressed.
The girls were all happy with their gifts. They are always grateful for whatever they receive.
David and I went for a nice long walk in the woods and then for a walk along Franklin Street. And then we ate enough but didn't overdo it. I didn't make turkey and all the trimmings. I didn't want to spend the whole day cooking I made some homemade fries, chicken empanaditas and spring rolls and vegetables from Trader Joe's. Tasty and easy. No one had room for cookies as they'd been eating their Christmas candy.
Now David and two of the girls have gone to the movies. David has gone to see I Am Legend and the girls are seeing Sweeney Todd. I'm at home watching a Hallmark movie, The Note.

To live in NC--how wonderful that would be! I've nver been but hear it is so lovely--like England.
It is a definite improvement over the cold North East. I would still love to go back to England to live for a while though as I haven't lived there since I was 20 and I feel like I'm missing out.
