"Christmas Eve"

Mia and Gina arrived on Friday afternoon for a two day 'preview' to Christmas. On Friday night we went to Evos for a healthy fast food dinner. Wayne joined us afterwards and we went for a walk around the neighborhood to see the Christmas lights on the homes.

On Saturday morning the girls and I went to the City Cafe on 4th for breakfast. I restrained myself and left the camera home. Mia had the cream cheese stuffed sourdough with carmelized apples; Gina had a bacon and cheddar omelette with potato pancakes and I had a Belgian Waffle. We stopped at Publix for a couple of things, then went back to the apartment and made some chocolate chunk cookies. We worked up quite a sweat spooning out that prepared gourmet cookie dough. I got it from a fund raiser by Gina's chorus at school.

Chef Reeshard.....

Mia was dancing around to "Last Christmas" with Wham.

Relaxing after all that baking . . .

Wayne arrived around 4:00 pm with homemade lasagna. Into the oven it went. Garlic cheddar biscuits, and veggies...

It was yummmmmmeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!

After dinner . . .

Putting a Christmas mix together on iTunes from Mia's and Gina's compilation. Afterwards we went downtown to look at the lights in the park and on the waterfront.

We caught a glimpse of Tarzan swinging around one of the banyan trees.

It was a beautiful night to be outside.

Rockefeller Center.

Saw this on a portapotty door.

Playing peek-a-boo in the trees.

Look who we ran into . . .

Back to the apartment to open a few gifts . . .
