Christmas Dinner...A Little Early

Steve and I never get to host Christmas dinner at our house, so this year, we decided to invite a few friends over for a traditional feast! We provided a honey-baked ham and pumpkin pie and had guests bring the "fixin's." It was so much fun! We intentionally kept the number small, so that we could enjoy a nice dinner without it feeling like a big Christmas party.

We read the Christmas story before we ate and played some games afterwards! Kids were welcome, but everyone ended up getting babysitters and Bella was in bed before dinner, so we had a wonderful, kids-free meal! I think we were all a little giddy at not having to chase toddlers or answer a million questions!

We set up a large table in the living room. It was so nice in there with the fireplace and Christmas tree.

The whole gang!

Our championship round of Spoons. If you've never played this game, you're missing out!

Being silly for the camera...this is why Steve won't let me dance in public.
