Fire in the Hole! But all not lost for Christmas Dinner!


The oven element started to burn like a blow torch! We turned off the oven, poured baking soda on it, still it burnt bright! FIRE IN THE HOLE!....so's to speak!
We cut the main power switch and the fire fizzled out, but not before the element broke into pieces. How would we ever cook Christmas Dinner???
Madison and Afton wrapped the potatoes to bar-b-q in the back yard...since the oven caught fire! (That was Jimmy's idea!)
Jimmy worked on the quilt for Troy (Shauna did a LOT of the sewing...where was she when we were taking pictures??!!) He monitored the potatoes cooking on the bar-b-q!
And then we pulled out the Turkey Roasting Pan (That's all we use it for is cooking turkeys!)
It worked like a charm on the Prime Rib Roast!!!! Delicious Dinner!

A new dinner tradition for the FamLea! What an amazing "save" by the boy scouts of the family!
