Christmas Eve Party

Paige and family came to the townhouse and the party began. Jason and Chris fixed beef tenderloin and lobster, along with grilled asparagus, Scott fixed Chris' black and bleu salad, and we had several desserts. I made Grandma Hobart's mac and cheese.

We enacted the Nativity Story, and had other readings that are traditional to our family. Jason always reads A Cup of Christmas Tea, reminds us so much of Aunt Phyllis. Paige had a few new ones, and I did Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa, which is new also. Didn't read The Little Match Girl, so sad and everyone complains saying it is too sad.

I rewrote our Nativity Play, trying to get the perfect balance of words, songs and movement. I'm not ready for Broadway, but close.
