This is a very different Christmas for me this year. I will not be cooking X-mas dinner for the first time that I can remember. My son got married this last July and bought a home some 40 minutes away and invited us all over to his home for dinner. Such a nice thing to do, his first Christmas with his new wife and all, wanting to share it with us too!. My parents are here too and also going along. I just feel that I should be doing something in the kitchen other than eat!

Hope everyone had a great Christmas Day and now it's evening here. Just got back from having dinner at my son's house. His wife is a great cook. Lots of good food and company. He gave us this great portrait of the sun setting through some palm trees that is breathtaking! I was so touched. He said I could look at that and think of Bonaire! I have just the place for hubby to hang it too!

We just had the most interesting meeting. My husband found his biological father 2 years ago on Christmas Eve (he was adopted). Tonight we met a stepson his father raised and his wife - they drove down for a few hours to meet with hubby's real dad who has come up for the weekend and is still here. He and my husband are having the best time talking and bonding. He's such a nice fellow, and he really was bamboozled out of his son...long story of a 1957 divorce and subsequent marriages and an adoption of my husband by a stepfather. We didn't want hubby's dad's stepson and his wife to go and they hated to leave. It was great! They are from TN, and we have plans to meet with them soon. Very, very nice people. With my gigantic family, and my husband growing up thinking he was an only child, it's amazing watching his family grow. It's just thrilling and tear jerking all at the same time. And they are all very nice people! We'll meet his half sisters soon, and hopefully his half brother, we've all talked and everyone is interested in the meeting, and the stepbrother says he looks just like his sisters. Magic on Christmas. Hope ya'll had some.

Glad to see that you all had a nice Christmas, but what a crazy mixed up world we live in. My Dad was Canadian, and my husband's mother was married to a rich French man who owned a perfume factory in France, he died in a road accident when Trev was a baby. That is all I know about who we are. Annie B. sweet Xmas dreams everyone.

Great story Kathy. I teared up reading it! Family isn't always about blood, but it's important to know what all that involved. But those great big blended families are fabulous too, as evidenced in your photo on CC!
