We set the tables, but served the food buffet this year. It worked better.
The random pictures, eyes closed, people chewing. Whatever. We were here and it was fun.
Homemade pies
Once in a while my camera does this, unbelieveable.
This was the reward--I spent a whole day moving toys around, washed everything, all the costumes and doll clothes, brought it all out of storage so kids could get to it again, and they played with it. All the dolls were dressed in matching outfits and tucked into beds with bottles. It was very cute.
These are also the same people who found their Christmas presents. In this sorting and cleaning endeavor, I had made dozens of trips and stacked all the gifts in a closet downstairs out of the way.
They found them!
I said I'd have to return them and buy new gifts now!
They said, oh no. They'd forget everything by Christmas.
Good grief.
When I asked what they were even doing in that closet they said playing Hide n Seek.
Okay, fine.
And these coats and hat were left behind. The top coat and hat were claimed, but nobody will acknowledge the ownership of this other coat.
Hmmm.
A random, mystery coat turned up on my bed after the party?
Seems suspicious.
Anyway, this was delightful.
Onward to Christmas
Love you all so, MOM aka Grandma
