Last Saturday we had the Hanes Family Christmas party at our house. It was our first party at our new house, and we were very excited to have everyone here. It was so great to see everyone and we all had a great time. It was my first time meeting little Molly and I hadn't seen Braylen since he was a month or so old. They are too precious. And most of the family I hadn't seen since the last Christmas party I went to 2 years ago. All of the kids have gotten so big and we really enjoyed having everyone here. Unfortunately not one single person took any pictures!!
Jon did most of the cleaning before the party, as well as wrapping all of the presents which looked PERFECT, of course. He also made a beautiful green salad and two amazing cherry pies which were a huge hit! I did the rest of the baking, churning out sugar cookies, rice crispy treats, ghiradelli drop cookies, brownies, holly treats and of course - apple cake! Jane brought the dinner which was ham, green beans, mashed potatoes, and rolls. Eddie and Nancy brought Sy's fruit salad, Craig and Karyn brought drinks and homemade spinach dip, and Darryl and Cheryl brought drinks. We had so much stuff!!!! It was great.
We did the gift exchange and I was so excited to get a mini food processor! I had already thought about trying to make homemade baby food, so this will be perfect! Jon got a cozy blanket and The Bourne Ultimatum, so we are so excited to watch it. Oh! And Craig and Karyn asked us to open our gift from them, and we got a digital photo frame!!! We love it!
The whole day was great and we can't wait to do it again next year!
