FX62 Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 My family has been celebrating on Christmas Eve and much like you never seem to make it to the "dinner" food after grazing on hours d'oeuvres and having a few adult beverages. A lot of story telling, laughing and jokes followed by gifts and a Chinese auction of sorts. Christmas day we go celebrate with my gf's family with much of the same good food wine and card playing. The day after Christmas is a much needed day of rest or back to work for some. Wishing you all a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"What do you all have planned" I'm planning to come to YOUR place. You are definitely going to need help with that grub.............I can spin a pretty good yarn or two, burp & fart then I'll do the dishes and run the sweeper. Address? (probably too late for mailing an invite soooooooo) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluecoupe Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 (edited) I'm being "kidnapped" for my 60th birthday and taken somewhere warm. That's what I know. I did the same to her when she turned 50 and I kidnapped her to Jamica. I'm sure it's somewhere south 'cause I was advised to pack my snorkel gear. ;-) So 12/24 VERY early, will be on big silver bird in sky... from 12/24 - 01/04 this will probably be a fairly good representation of me: Edited December 19, 2013 by SteveC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
