Good thing that I took the last couple of days off of work to get ready for the family dinner that is being held at my parent’s house in just a few short days from now. There is always so much to get done for big events such as this with such a large family to try and accommodate and cater to every one’s needs and wants. It is a good thing that we live in the south and don’t have to worry about cold weather for Christmas and we can entertain outside if we want to and believe me we really want to with this many people attending and the number always rising with each year that passes.
My folks have a great yard with plenty of Picnic Tables for people to utilize come meal time so no one has to worry about not having a place to sit and eat at. Nothing worse than having to balance and plate and a drink on your lap, been there done that, no thank you.
There are plenty of Adirondack chairs on the front porch for folks that just want to kick back and watch the kids playing on the wonderful playground equipment that the folks take so much pride in having for all their grandchildren to enjoy all year round. I wish that I had a front porch as grand as my folks, but at least I get to enjoy theirs when I go over there for visits and family festivities.
