Another very late post...A week before Christmas, we had our 4th annual Christmas Crawl with our friends. Usually we start at our house, but this year we started at Meryl and Goldie's house. Everyone has a signature drink (adults only) and something to nosh on. At Meryl and Goldie's house, the appetizer was mashed potato bar and bacon crack (a delicious treat of bacon, brown sugar and cinnamon). The drink was great too. Something with berries...yum!
Next, we went to Topher and Mags' house. They had shots of Bailey's salted caramel and sparkling grape juice for the kids. Their mom served a "grinchy" treat (grapes, bananas and cherries on a toothpick) and pepperoni rolls. While we were at their house, we took photos with Christmas props. The kids decided to open their presents at that house, since Bob had a soccer game that evening (he was to miss the third house). They all got fun gifts (mostly from Five Below). Bob got a fun game called Basket Case and SJ got a voice changer.
Then, we went to Willie and Ami's house. They had Moscow Mules and juice for the kids. Their mom served Italian beef sandwiches and buffalo chicken dip. At their house, the kids were busy playing with their new toys, so the adults opened their presents. We can home with quick wine cooler and a bottle of wine.
Last, we went to our house. Bob was back from his game (they won!). The girls decided to watch a movie while the boys played video games. The adults hung out in our movie room watching White Christmas. We served an awful (was supposed to be yummy) cranberry whiskey sour, pop for the kids and Christmas brownies. Our friends stayed until about 11:00. We had a great time as usual. Love when we get to spend time with our friends.
