Christmas Eve with Friends
Bob and I spent Christmas Eve with friends at their house. We arrived at Bob and Kris’s house around 5:00 PM. Shortly after our arrival we sat down to a delicious dinner that included spiral ham, scalloped potatoes, Italian meatballs and Rigatoni, shrimp cocktail and various desserts.
Christmas Eve dinner was plentiful and delicious.
Throughout the evening we enjoyed good conversation and lots of laughs. I particularly enjoyed sharing stories of grade school and high school capers.

Our friends have two dogs, Megan and Rocco. Rocco is a recent addition to the family. He is a rumbustious dog. Megan is more docile but can be mischievous. Rocco goes nuts if he cannot find his favorite toy (a bone). Megan hid the bone one day. Our friends looked high and low for that bone but came up empty. About 24 hours later Kris heard a plop behind her. When she turned around there was Megan with Rocco’s bone lying in front of her.

Thank you, Kris and Bob, for inviting us to your house. We enjoyed spending Christmas Eve with you and your family.

Love those dogs! And I giggled at the story of the “stolen,” bone. I have dogs and that type of thing can be an ongoing event here too.
That was lovely, a great evening you shared with us. Cute dogs and a happy looking family.
