AND OUR HERITAGE IN A FAMILY TREE!!Dave and I had a great time doing the 12 Days of Christmas for his parents this year…as you can see, we got a little creative with our gifts each night. With both of us working, often we didn’t ring the doorbell until 1 or 2 am…sorry Mike and Melanie!!
It ended up being a really fun way to count down to Christmas, and give his parents the gifts we had wanted to give them… for Melanie: a set of Williams-Sonoma 12 DoC plates, and for Mike: a framed Family Tree that we made.
Yay for Christmas! We’ll have to find a family to keep awake until 2 am for 12 days next year!
