First Christmas in Charleston for the Chins. It was a success and a memorable one. I am happy the four of us were able to be together. There was no way were going to leave Caz alone on Christmas Day.
It was certainly a different kind of Christmas. We didn't cook. We ordered BBQ. We feasted on brisket, smoked chicken and pulled pork, with mac & cheese, tater tots, baked beans and cornbread. There was an amazing pecan pie. A Southern classic for sure. There were also some seasonally appropriate dark beers too.
The video camera was running Christmas morning. The boys actually got up at a decent hour. Of course I had been up for hours but that is par for the course for me. I got in a few hours on the Christmas puzzle and watched Christmas Chronicles 2.
When the boys went back to bed to nap, Demi and I explored more of the area. We drove to Folly to see the Morris Lighthouse. What a view! The beach was cool. Driftwood lay strewn across it. Trees buried in the sand, stuck out willy nilly. It was warm and sunny. The wind blew a bit but what a nice day.
A great Christmas Day for the Chin.
