Gautier Christmas Party

We did it again. We had Collins' mothers' brother and sisters over and all of their children & grandchildren over to our house this Sunday. We served 40 people for a sit down dinner. (No we did not cook) Everyone was responsible for a dish (thank goodness!) I have to say I was really nervous about sitting 40 people at our home, but it went beautifully (thank goodness people to not mind sitting in the garage)! Everything worked out and everyone seemed to really enjoy themselves. Next year we will not be the host, 2 years is enough, sorry family! It was really nice to see everyone and all of the newest additions. What a wonderful family tradition that has been going on for almost 30 years!

Thanks for the pictures and everything! Maridith, you make us so proud! You were born to be a gracious hostess and everyone sees not only your outer beauty, but your inner beauty also. Your parents raised a wonderful daughter!!! We love you so very much!
