All I want for Christmas...

This post is sooooo over due it's not even funny. I mean, a month late??? I'm terrible. I've been meaning to do it, I just didn't have the photos uploaded. So here they finally are.
Chris and I hosted Christmas dinner for the first time at our house. It was us, my parents, Chris' parents, and Chris' brother and sister-in-law. The 8 of us had a great time hanging out while all the food cooked...and cooked...and cooked...and cooked.

I wanted to cook a tur-duk-hen (for those of you that don't know what it is - it is a cajun food where you stuff a chicken inside of a duck inside of a turkey). We underestimated the amount of time it would take - so dinner was about 1 1/2 hours late - but so worth it!

Here is a picture of the tur-duk-hen (pre-cutting):

Here it is, cut, along with the rest of the food:

And for good measure - here is our beautiful Christmas tree for this year:
