Wednesday 12/22 Now for the "grown-up" party!

Just a few of the party treats!

Dr. Megan made an appearance!

Christmas craft central, with Hannah, Sophie and Charlotte

Dan and Jer supervise the games

Well we kinda cleaned all day, off and on, but it was worth it. The house looked great and now we don't have to do a thing for the whole of Christmas week!  Actually the girls had school all day and Danny and I did do some reading together, played Othello, and he and Charlotte went for a hike in the woods.  By 5:55pm the kids were all at the door waiting to greet guests, the first of which finally showed up a 6:25(thanks you Arbors, we needed you!)  The kids would see a car, get all excited, then yell "aaw! false alarm"
We ended up with about 35 people making there way through the open house, and they all brought FOOD.  We had tomato tart, cake balls, sugared almonds, pumpkin crumble, a cheese ball, a big cake, autumn loaf cake, you name it!  We will be eating like kings all week!
I love to host people, and this house is ideal for that. Folks were gaming downstairs, chatting on the sun porch, eating and visiting in the kitchen, and cozying by the fireplace.  My friends make me happy!
Thanks for coming guys...and thanks for the treats!
