WOW, I am a bit behind in BLOGGING.... to say the least!
My life isn't too exciting, but I always like to post pictures and I just finally uploaded them! Christmas this year was the most FUN yet! I did much better about my spending. This time I bought quality and quanity! I am sure I made Bill happy! This was also the first year the kids got almost everything on their list. And for like a week they kept saying, "Thank you so much Mommy, I really, really wanted this." They were so appreciative. Which makes me feel happy. Happy that they love what they got, but they were greatful they received! Being a parent is so hard, but times like this, it's rewarding!

2. Mix eggs, milk, and maple syrup together and pour over the ingredients in the pan. Cover and put in the fridge over night.
3. In the morning preheat oven to 375 degrees. Pull casserole from fridge while oven is heating. Bake for 35 minutes. Sprinkle pecans over casserole and bake for an additional 10 minutes. Casserole is done when center is set.
After I pulled it from the oven I drizzled a little more syrup over the casserole and or you can drizzle more on eat plate when you serve.
After breakfast, we got dressed and went to Bill's moms house.
We had a nice afternoon. It was the 4 of us. Lee and we invited Brian over as well, Jennifer too, but I think she was on the phone, I left a message!
Food was wonderful we had turkey with all the trimmings and PRIME RIB.
YUM.... I was SO full afterwards.
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE.....
