Christmas Highlights From Wisconsin

A Christmas cannot go by without my traditional gingerbread boys.  Oh yes, I love many different Christmas cookies, but the gingerbread cookies are my favorite and my mother's favorite too.

I can't tell you how many family conversations we've had in grandma and grandpa's kitchen.  It's true, the kitchen is the most important room in the house.....do you agree?

Such a nice surprise to have our son and his new wife Trisha join us for Christmas Eve at grandma and grandpa's house in southern Wisconsin.  My hubby Bike man is off to the right!  Long story short, our son met a wonderful girl in college, who just happened to grow up 15 miles from where I grew in in southern Wisconsin.  Never in my wildest dreams did I think our son would have a connection between northern Wisconsin and Richland Center/Muscoda!!!  I promise to blog later on about our son's beautiful wedding back in August 2015. 

Awwwh, and here's my Mom Moo, she's so happy to be with her family.

And lastly, I'm sharing a photo of my our daughter Becca (from Minneapolis)....I'm so proud of her.  Becca is a fun-loving and hard working young lady that loves to cook and bake like her grandma, momma and dad too.

We might be lacking snow for Christmas this year, but our family found plenty of great togetherness in meaningful conversations and LOTS of good cooking.  Merry Christmas to all my blog friends past and current.
