Saturday
Well, we are down to 1 week from Christmas Eve, not that anyone needed me to tell you that. Last night we were at friends house for thier Christmas party, we arrived a bit early to help them with some last minute details, April always makes the most delicious and interesting nibbles for her parties.
Lots of kids there this year, last year there were about 3 maximum, this year there were a few more, the youngest being over a month, the oldest 10. Spent time catching up and chatting with people that I haven't seen since last years party. Such a change! At least for the hosts, anyway, since they had thier first child there, Conor. Roanna spent a bit of time feeding him and holding him.
This morning was spent boiling eggs, for the deviled eggs, and making a sauce for the meatballs for tonight and tommorrow, plus mixing the meat with secret spices! Roanna has gone out to do some shopping, and hopefully later this afternoon we will make the deviled eggs, and cook the meatballs. Some for the party across the hall tonight, and the rest for the party tomorrow and the Mum-in-laws house. We will be there early to help with the final prepping, so more than likely I won't be posting anything tomorrow. We will take the camera but I promise nothing, since we took the camera last night and ended up with 3 pictures taken. All of Conor. No other shots at the party.
For my Grandma, I have been reading your blog which is very nice, and informative, lots of Bermuda that I never new, or was around for.....
I was VERY excited to find out the your dad (my Great-Granddad) worked for Dr. Beebe during his research off of Bermuda. That was pretty cool to learn, looking at the old pictures was interesting to, since you could see later decendents in those faces...
If anyone hasn't seen it yet (she is one blogger), here is a link for you.
