Christmas Plans

December 2nd, 2012 at 05:37 pm

We don't do a lot of gift giving in my family amongst adults. Now that both of my kids are pretty much grown, they aren't into the "magic" of wrapped presents under the tree.

So, I will give each of my kids $150. I will fill stockings with candy for my kids and my son-in-law too. I picked up a small gift for my daughter the other day, 2 pair of cute slipper-type socks with cats on them. (She loves cats). I may or may not buy similar small gifts for my son and son-in-law. BF and I have agreed to not exchange gifts.

A few months ago, son and I heard some reference to "It's a Wonderful Life" and it went right over son's head. It was then I realized, he has never seen it! Our local old-timey independent movie theatre and live event venue will be showing the film on Dec 22nd. I think that will be an awesome way for son to see this classic for the first time.

My daughter and son-in-law will spend the night here on Christmas Eve. My son will be with his Dad most of the day (since Christmas falls on a Tuesday), but will be here Christmas night. I think I will make my "chicken and italian beans" recipe which is an old favorite. (Chicken breasts cooked with italian beans, tomatoes, and garlic). I usually serve it with ranch mashed potatoes and french bread.

The newest movie version of Les Miserables will be in theatres Christmas day. The previews look fabulous! I intend to treat everyone to that, but possibly not on Christmas day. Les Miserables is one of the plays I have taken my daughter to see in San Francisco during her teen years. We were both completely "wowed" by the production. I can hardly wait to see this movie.
