party at my house!

What originally intended to be a small dinner at my house became a Christmas Eve party.  Still small, just over a dozen people, but I don't have dishes for 8 much less 13.  I made red chili and white chili and caesar salad, Uncle Matt brought desert, and Uncle Peter brought a vacuum.  Yay, a very useful house-warming present.  Now I can clean up after all these people!  It was a successful party and a good time had by all.  Richard, BLou, Matt, Dan, Susie, Ellen, John, Gail, Peter, Paul, Dave and Judy were all in attendance.
