What a beautiful day for Christmas Eve day. We got up around 8:00 am and went for our walk. Came home and opened the door of the 5th Wheel so the sun could warm up the inside of our home. After breakfast of cereal and bread with peanut butter, we went to the Market to purchase a double boiler for the pudding, and picked up a small gift for H & M, then we got busy with our preparations for tomorrow's dinner. Gord grated the carrots and potatoes for carrot pudding. The sweet potato was cooked and mashed and pan ready for heating tomorrow. Sauce was made for the pudding, and was just cleaning up the final dishes when Bonnie and Clyde came over and we played a couple of games of Upwords. They were just getting up to go home (they are parked about 50' from us) when Glen and April came for "a little something to drink". Hans and Maria were invited to join the crowd for gingerbread cake and other goodies.
Everyone was gone by 4:30 pm. Thank goodness we had leftover soup from Monday for supper, as by 5:30 Gordon had been around inviting the neighbors to join us in a fire. While he was doing that, Jeanne was making a pineapple dump cake. There were 12 people at the fire and we had a good visit. Gloria & Glen brought a big pot of hot chocolate, Clyde brought cookies and Mary brought some corn bread made from Indian corn her son had grown in Arkansas. Maria and Hans came for a little while as well.
Returning to the RV we sat and watched a DVD of Terry Fador, the ventriloquist who won America's Got Talent some time ago.
Merry Christmas to all!
