holiday party 2009

My extended family planned a trip overseas over the holiday break - which plotted our "holiday party" a day early. The event was a hostess dream - But of course, that didn't stop me from pulling an all-nighter to make sure everything was perfect, including preparing a separate party for the kids to enjoy while we had dinner, catered by Macaroni & Grill - one of our favorite family-friendly restaurants.

In the art room, each place setting included an art craft (painting a mask), holiday cup and treats like animal crackers and a candy cane...

And then each child opened their single gift from all of us - while Ava happily presented her handmade gifts to the elders...

Here we all are - once again propped in front of the annual tripod that takes our group photo - about a hundred of them - wishing everyone we know, a happy holiday season!

  1. I notice a re-occurring theme that all my comments seem to have around this time of year. This is when Zarlacht gets to really flex her decorating muscles, and it shows. The house looked great. Everyone had a blast.
