We had the traditional Christmas turkey dinner, cabbage rolls, pethai(?) (Ukranian perogies) and butter tarts at my in-laws place. Not as many were there so all 12 of us could sit around the table. Some years we've had two tables plus a extra card table for the kids in another room. Our white Christmas made for a slow drive there but it did make the arrival of Christmas that much more special this year. I have only time for a quick note as we're off to my Aunt Brenda's to have a Boxing Day gathering of my father's side of the family and have a potlach supper. Today we will also "shower" my cousin who's expecting her first in February.
