A Festivus for the Rest of Us!

Tonight was the annual Christmas Extravaganza that happens every year with our family and our very good friends, Tony, Lisa and Kaitlyn. We always get together during the holidays to enjoy some snacks, hot chocolate and view Christmas lights and even get in a little gift exchanging as well.

They live in a neighborhood...unlike us way out here in the sticks...so we load up the car with goodies, load up our trailer with the golf cart and blankets and after a snacky supper, we pile in the golf carts and have a light tour of the homes in their neighborhood. It is quite fun. After we get bone cold, we end up back at their house and partake in some hot chocolate and watch as the gift madness overtakes our children.

Tonight was no different. Sweet girls, and they both got a Barbie something...ours is a Barbie with a dog that poops and Kaitlyn got one that has her very own hair salon. Barbie has changed a lot since I knew her!

Here is a picture of the two daddies, doing what they do best...waiting on their daughters' every whim! (actually they were trying to get the Barbies' out of their packages...and twist ties, and all the other packaging secrets they use to keep them in their box!! AGHH!)

We had fun...it was a blast...and best of all, I got a new Coke ornament for my tree!! I love it when my friends know me so well.

Merry Merry!
