Hard to believe another Christmas has come and gone! We had a great day, which began with opening presents at Mom's house...even little Holly was impressed by all the loot under the tree.
Jean and I hosted Christmas dinner this year and managed to fit eight guests in our dining room: Mom and Dad; Jim, Janice, Richard and Ian; Marna and Nin. We had a lovely evening of chatting and laughter and I don't think anyone even missed the turkey! Instead, I made a roasted vegetable gallette, spaghetti squash, brussels sprouts and beet/carrot/apple salad. The highlight of the meal, though, was Nin's hard sauce that accompanied my xmas pudding.
Richard even challenged Jean to Carcassonne and beat her twice - now that's a Christmas miracle. Anyways, a fun-filled but very busy day; Holly wasn't the only one who felt like this at 10pm!
