Our daughter and SIL hosted the Christmas afternoon family gathering and cooked oysters. Everyone brought a crock-pot addition and there was plenty of food! There was boiled shrimp, shrimp and grits, chicken soup, potato soup, lava chocolate dessert and our cowboy ranch beans with cornbread. The girls played between the bedrooms and the tree house.

A great day to be thankful for!
