Christmas Eve at the Homestead

Early Christmas Eve was spent preparing for our Christmas feast.  

While Aloise prepped her stuffed mushroom delights, Friar Charles took charge of sweeping and baking for our afternoon guests.



As Christmas cooking continued, it was also time to relax, 
have fun with family,

  gather and play.

Maureen presented her creative Christmas mats and albums,
and playime continued!

You WERE here. This was from Christmas Eve. Unfortunately, no really good pictures from our Christmas Day feast. None of the spread or the game playing or mingling of family and friends. But did get a few of present unwraping which I should post. Just such a shame that the Party was not recorded :(
