B and Raffi are getting a new water bowl and a couple of play mice this year. Shhh, don't tell them.Sue Ann Jaffarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09984054116933714621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3529128955266044151.post-85140055650449489782010-12-16T14:38:11.520-05:002010-12-16T14:38:11.520-05:00Vicki - Our book club does a potluck and Yankee sw...Vicki - Our book club does a potluck and Yankee swap every year. Always great fun!<br /><br />Darrell - Just keep the mid-seventies weather through February this year--we're coming your way for vacation!<br /><br />Sue Ann - I read your blog. Rack of lamb is impressive. Do your three darling kittys have stocking by the fire, too?<br /><br />Keith - Interesting the theaters are now filled. Maybe people don't travel home as much with the economy and the airline nightmares. Why not enjoy a movie?!Lisa Borkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09174197592575631864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3529128955266044151.post-84498078228050541622010-12-16T13:32:26.161-05:002010-12-16T13:32:26.161-05:00Lisa, we try to go to the first showing of a movie...Lisa, we try to go to the first showing of a movie Xmas morning. When I was a boy, the only other ones in the theater were other Jews. Now the theaters are filled. I wonder why more celebrants aren't enjoying Xmas morning as they used to.Keith Raffelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02926077627965529183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3529128955266044151.post-13286139654460032842010-12-16T11:44:04.368-05:002010-12-16T11:44:04.368-05:00I can smell the baking from here.

It's a little hard for us to maintain the spirit out here in the southwest, it's supposed to remain in the md-seventies all the way through Christmas. Still, we'll do our best. Thanks for sharing.Darrell Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08394984700734588887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3529128955266044151.post-39735290245856264262010-12-16T08:00:23.532-05:002010-12-16T08:00:23.532-05:00Lisa, what a fun post.

I would have a wonderful time hanging out with your family!<br /><br />An annual event we look forward to is a potluck party with four other families with a Yankee swap for gifts. Although many of the "kids" are now young adults, they still join us for the party and the often hilarious gift exchange. We rotate houses and keep it simple, but it is amazing to me how much this tradition means to all of us, young and old.Vicki Douderahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12683468231378487388noreply@blogger.com
