Christmas 2009
This was a very special Christmas for our family. In the weeks preceding, we had a lot of fun and many laughs. We decorated our home with two trees, and the girls had a great time discovering ornaments that had been packed away in boxes all year. Katie and Lauren’s friends helped us and we all enjoyed fresh baked cookies and hot chocolate.
In the spirit of tradition, we constructed and frosted a gingerbread train which, in the end, looked more like a train wreck. Christmas eve, Kerry and I visited Grandma Evelyn and then enjoyed dinner and coffee with the rest of the weirdo’s at Village Inn. Christmas Day began with the girls opening WAY too many presents as we prepared for our annual family dinner.
The following day, we once again gathered to make moche in keeping with our family tradition. Marty had purchased an automatic moche maker and, in spite of my hesitancy to depart from the past, it was a huge success.
