How did the Smith Family Christmas go? It didn't! As you can see in Donny's Facebook pictures, we had a little snowstorm on Saturday, the day of the party. About 20 inches.
I invited 30 people - 4 came. 2 were our next door neighbors and the other 2 were Pam and Eric, bless them. The house looked beautiful - fire in the fireplace, lights everywhere, snow falling outside, carols playing, food for 30 people including an entire red velvet cake, a 10 lb. ham, meatballs, cookies, cheesecake, presents piled high...my first Christmas gathering for my family...to say I was crushed is an understatement. Thank goodness for the 4 people that did manage to get there.
Pam and I are driving down to see Mom on Christmas Eve but other than that, we won't get together as a family this year.

I can picture it, and it sounds beautiful. What the heck do you do with that much food? Sorry it didn't work out - I wish we had been there!
