Christmas Dinner 2012

Every other year Jane's family comes to visit for Christmas and on the off year they come on Thanksgiving with the exception of last year when we all went to Chicago for Thanksgiving.  This was their year to be here and it always completes our Christmas.  We had a couple of warm days after their arrival and then it turned cold.  We actually had snow and ice on Christmas day.  Angie and Roberts Mom and family were going to come for dinner as well as Tamara and Taryn's families.  They all had to cancel dinner because at that time of the day the weather was almost a white out.  (very unusual for our area of Texas)  Our immediate family came earlier so they were here for dinner.  We prepared so much food with the anticipation of more people being here.  Everything was delicious and wonderful and we were very grateful for everyone here. We are still a large group with just us and we all felt very thankful to have each other for those few hours.
