If you come to my house for Christmas, you better bring an appetite and your game face 😂🎄

We had three turkeys, stuffing, mac & cheese, mashed potatoes, rolls, creamed corn, green beans, corn casserole, and enough food to cover the whole table. Then came the desserts - stack cake, Butterfinger dessert, Oreo delight, and Nutter Butter banana pudding. Nobody left hungry, I promise.

After we ate, we played Christmas games, and let me tell you, this family is COMPETITIVE 😂 From scooting wrapping paper with our feet, to head-shoulders-knees-cup, to walking around till the paper dropped, and even trying to keep a balloon in the air while putting on and taking off shirts - we laughed till we couldn’t breathe.

I love my family more than words can say and feel so blessed to get to spend Christmas like this. And to all my GRANfans - I wish I could fit every one of y’all in this house so we could celebrate together. I love y’all and hope you had the merriest Christmas ❤️🎁🥹🎄

It’s the most wonderful time of the year 🎄❤️

Christmas has always been one of my favorite times. During the Christmas season, we’re usually in the kitchen making Christmas candy. When Christmas Eve comes, all the kids pile up in the kitchen to open their gifts, while the adults open theirs in the living room. We always have hot dogs and a whole lot of laughter.

On Christmas Day, we sit down for Christmas dinner and play games together, and that’s what makes it so special to me 🤍

I’d love to hear what y’all’s Christmas traditions are.

I want to wish all my GRANfans a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year 🎄✨

My Peanut Butter Balls 🥜

Ingredients:

Chocolate Coatings
• 11.5 oz chocolate chips
• 20 oz chocolate almond bark (you will have some left over)
• 1 tablespoon Crisco

Peanut Butter Filling:
• 2 lb bag confectioners’ sugar
• 16 oz jar peanut butter (any brand)
• 3 sticks butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions:

1. Melt the Chocolate
Set up a double boiler by placing a small pot inside a larger pot of water. Be careful not to let any water get into the small pot.
Add the chocolate chips and almond bark to the small pot.
Bring the water to a boil, then reduce heat to keep the chocolate melted. Stir often.
Once fully melted, stir in 1 tablespoon of Crisco to thin the chocolate for dipping.
2. Make the Peanut Butter Mixture
In a large bowl, combine the confectioners’ sugar, peanut butter, melted butter, and vanilla.
Stir well. The mixture will seem thin at first but will thicken as you keep mixing.
When it becomes very thick and won’t thicken anymore, it’s ready.
3. Roll the Balls
Line cookie sheets with aluminum foil.
Roll the mixture into balls (any size you like) and place them on the sheets.
Freeze for 20–45 minutes.
4. Dip in Chocolate
Insert toothpicks into the frozen peanut butter balls.
Dip each ball into the melted chocolate, shaking off excess.
Place back on the foil-lined sheets.
5. Set & Store
Return to the freezer until the chocolate sets.
Once set, they’re ready to eat.
Store refrigerated.
