Christmas Eve

11 56 pm pst   [ x-mas party ]

If it's Christmas Eve then that means Matthew's mom is throwing her anual Christmas party, complete with her famour Christmas chili.

Rachel's Daily Diary

Matthew had two of his best friends from high school over.

Rachel's Daily Diary

Everything was perfect, including the flawless enormous tree. I made bruchetta to add the the ample spread and everyone ate untilt hey were full.

Rachel's Daily Diary

The family has recently developed a nice tradition where everyone writes down three gifts they'd like during Thanksgiving. Then everyone draws a name from a hat. Only one gift to buy for the extrended family and everyone gets what they want.

Rachel's Daily Diary

Even the family dog was festive.

Rachel's Daily Diary

4 years ago:

Another Christmas Eve. Dinner was with my mom's favorite people: her two children, her boyfriend (Howard), and her best friend (Margaret). Our meal was unconventional, but our holiday spirit wasn't.

3 years ago:

I didn't write because I was in Hawai'i.

2 years ago:

I am in bed curled up with tea because I am sick. Rather, I am trying not to get sick.

1 year ago:

I will drive to Matthew's parents' house tonight, then back home in the morning, then back to Matthew's tomorrow afternoon to pick him up, then back to my dad's house for dinner, then back to Matthew's to sleep, then to my mom's the next morning, then to my dad's, then to the airport.
