Christmas

It was Christmas....need I say more?  All right, I will elaborate a little.  For the first time, we had a Christmas Eve program at our house.  We each were assigned to prepare a party game to play.  We played name that tune, charades, a pudding eating contest, a funny question game, and stinger, a game where nearly everyone died a gruesome death.  We topped off the evening by singing the Hallelujah chorus, then eating parfaits.
Christmas morning was off to a slow start, but was very satisfying.  We all enjoyed opening presents.  Our best present was not a gift, but a presence.  We were thrilled to be joined by Jeff's parents, younger brother and sister on Christmas Eve and morning.  It was fun to share this special day with them.  Later on in the day, Jeff's older brother and his family joined us for more presents and family time.  It was a good holiday.
