Merry Christmas!
 |
Christmas Day came with nice,
comfortable temperatures in the mid-sixties. Who cares what the weather is,
it's time to unwrap presents! |
 |
Spike had to check out the Poinsettia
that was poking out of Krista's stocking. |
 |
Rebecca liked the scarf that Krista
knitted. |
 |
Krista decided to wear her flower as a
head band and started unwrapping the rest of her presents, including a new
wallet from Grandpa Rich. |
 |
Berlynn received treats
for her dogs, and a certificate for new boots. (More treats for her dogs!) |
 |
Then it was time to set
the table and take showers before the rest of the gang showed up. When they
did, we went right back to unwrapping presents. Jeanne received a nice
bottle of wine! (Which BTW, did not survive the day.) |
 |
Berlynn opened a box with a nice new
sweater/coat. |
 |
She's styling! |
 |
Then we all sat down to dinner. Smoked
turkey and pulled pork. We called it a turpig dinner. (That sounds better
than a pigkey) |
 |
Of course what's dinner without
clowning around and making faces? We have a history of having fun! |
 |
After dinner, Rich entertained us with
a story. |
 |
Then we tried Jeannette's chocolate
fondue. |
 |
The fun didn't stop as we played a
round of Balderdash. |
 |
Finally towards the end of the evening,
Stella was the first to collapse with visions of sugarplums. |
 |
Spike went to sleep on Alex's shoulder,
no doubt dreaming of chasing large turkey legs. Thanks everyone, for making
this the best Christmas ever! |
