Christmas Cheer: Better Late than Never!

Our family was visited by not only Santa, but the stomach flu over the past few days. As a result, our Christmas dinner was delayed from December 25th to today. 10 adults and 4 kids will be arriving in a couple of hours! It will be so nice to have everyone here. We have the new dining room table set up pretty for all the adults, and a separate “kids table” for the four cousins (I always loved being at a kids table when I was a kid, didn’t you?).

Here are a few pics. (The flowers are a little worse for wear from the two-day delay but I’m keeping them anyhow!)

P.S. In case you were wondering, no we still haven’t decided on chairs for the dining table! We are finding it to be a tough decision.

P.P.S. Yes, I promise this will be the last Christmas-related post in 2012.

  1. Glad you are feeling better – my partner and I came home Christmas eve from the grandkids to start getting sick at 3:00 a.m.  We are still not 100% so hope to have some kind of celebration on NY’s day with his family (who also all came down with the flu after last Sunday’s get together)… this is a wicked stomach flu!!

    • Hi Joann … I think I spoke too soon. My Mom just called and can’t make it because she’s come down sick now. :( Boy, this flu is really hitting everyone hard, isn’t it?
