Hi Chris, It sounds like your family had a great Christmas. We had a great one here all so. Your cinnamon bread looks yummy.My husband loves anything with cinnamon in it. I spent so much time in the kitchen cooking, I let my grandson open his gifts without me. He runs out of the kitchen Mom-Mom said i can open my gifts while she is cooking Mom-Mom said so. I love the lottery wreath that is a great idea.Thank you for sharing your Christmas with us.Have a good night!
