Each year I get together with my SIBLINGS and my PARENTS and we have a really nice dinner and we used to exchange gifts but now we do a SUB FOR SANTA. We each bring gifts and wrap them up together on this night.
This year, Joyce offered to make her special CHRISTMAS DINNER. It was DELISH! She made PRIME RIB, the best Twice Baked Potatoes, Asparagus and a nummy salad. She is an excellent cook. She wasn't too happy with most of us when she found out we like our meat cooked well done!
After we ate we went downstairs to wrap the gifts. It always leaves me with a great feeling knowing we are helping a family out. Then Joyce served dessert. It was a great evening and I am thankful for my family and I enjoyed spending time with them doing another TRADITION!
She Joyce decorated her table so cute!
She gave each of us this cute little frame to take home. Mine says, "Be Merry" Super cute!

Each year we take a picture of each person. We started that little tradition back in 1990 when we started this Sibling Dinner. Here are our pics from this year:

Mom snuck in a hug for Steven. He is always so uncomfortable when we hug him!
What a fun, successful Sibling Dinner!
