this has been a tradition in michael's family for decades... this year, it was at our house!
kitty's brothers, sisters & their families get together for an evening of festivities, which include: yummy food (this year was ciao pasta), a cookie exchange/contest, an ornament exchange, a visit from santa, caroling (accompanied by the ever-talented katie on the uke), & a crazy gift exchange! my new family knows how to party like it's 1999!
