This morning Mr. Stannix and the boys went to the rink bright and early for a parents vs kids game. They all came back and filled the house with excited chatter as they recounted the events for me. It sounded like it was a lot of fun!
The rest of the day was filled with yard work, tidying, and grocery shopping as we prepared to host an Ugly Sweater Party in the evening.
We had prepared quite a few appetizers, and those who came also brought something to share, which made for a really fun dinner/evening of finger food!
I think we ended up with over forty people. We had Christmas music playing, kids running everywhere and a whole island full of yummy food and treats! Everyone was content to gather and visit and the games tables we had set out were hardly used. It was nice to see everyone enjoying their time together.
Some people stayed until well after 10pm which was so fun! Once everyone had left, we quickly tidied up a few things, let the dogs out pee, and tucked everyone in. The kids were practically begging to go to bed!
