~Bacon-Wrapped Stuffed Jalapeno Peppers

After a wonderful Christmas Eve at Gil and Linda's with the whole family (minus 3) and after Megan and Nathan were tucked into bed so that St Nick could find them here at nanie and tatie's house in Arizona, David fired up the grill for a midnight snack!

Michelle and I got our warm pj's and jackets on and sat outside under the heat lamp with Dan and David waiting for the yummy bacon-wrapped-stuffed jalapeno peppers. They were sooo tasty, well the first bite was and the second bite had a kick, but they were so good! After that we were on fire! Didn't need the heat lamp to keep us warm. We were laughing hysterically, Michelle wanted to stick her tongue in the cold pool water and jumping in the pool did cross my mind. It was quite a moment!

Cheers to good memories and jalapeno peppers!

She will bear a son and you are to name him Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins. All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet: "behold the virgin shall be with child and bear a son, and shall name him Emmanuel, which means God is with us". Matthew 1: 21-23
