Christmas meals with an awesome seafood feast last year, I think she outdid herself once again this year with what she prepared.\u00a0 My glorious wife laid on a six course all day meal, starting with a croissant and finishing up with a dessert combo from Matthew and Sarah.\u00a0 Fortunately, this year I was able to capture it in all its glory thanks to a terrific new Olympus camera that Jen got me as a prezzie.\u00a0 As with many past years, I was spoilt absolutely rotten by Jen, her family and my parents.<\/p>\n<p>All in all, an amazing Christmas.\u00a0 It made me feel loved, lucky and very full at the end of the day.<\/p>\n<p>A quick snapshot of the day:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thefatwebsite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/christmas-day.jpg\"><img
