Christmas 2010

This year, we had a small family gathering for Christmas:  my parents, who drove over from Okanogan for the week, plus the five of us.  During the week, everyone finished their shopping and enjoyed a seasonal flick or two.  This year, we watched It’s A Wonderful Life and The Bishop’s Wife earlier in the month, and after my parents arrived, viewed the John Ford / John Wayne classic, Donovan’s Reef.

On Christmas, Kim and the kids played a concert for us.  Sandy played the melodies on her saxophone, Scott and Bonnie accompanied on their trombones, and Kim added harmonies on her violin.  In the kitchen, Kim cooked Beef Wellington as the main course, and, with Kim’s crust, I made a chocolate pecan pie.   A few other dishes rounded out the delicious meal.
