We went to Mimi and Papa's house for our traditional Christmas Eve fondue night. As usual, it was fantastic. We did have one unusual event occur...the door bell rang and two guests appeared. Don let them in and took their coats and then he led them down to the basement. We looked at them, and they looked at us and discovered they were are the wrong house! Kiera got two special gifts...an accordion that belonged to Auntie Em and a cradle and high chair that both Emily and I played with. We are so lucky that Mimi saved them and they are in great shape. We had a lot of fun playing Catch Phrase and doing "dog photo sessions" which deserve a post of their own!

What a great time! We had so many bottles/cans in the recyling, we had to use an bag in addition to the bin! I guess that's the mark of a good party!
ReplyDeleteI think our surprise guests were God's way of reminding us of what this holiday is REALLY about!
