Today we had a fabulous time at our famous Erwin Girls Christmas party held this year at Ruthie's.  Those in attendance, in order of age, were Aunt Ruth, (Bea was missed), Ruthie, Sandi, Jeannie, myself, Vickie, and baby Gail.  We each brought table gifts and placed them around Ruthie's beautifully decorated table.

After games, beverages (Sandi), and hors d'oeuvres (Mary), we moved into the dining room for our delicious meal and friendly conversation. 

We dined on a dazzling chicken quiche (Ruthie); an outstanding spinach, nut, berry, avocado salad (Jeannie); a delectable red jello/pretzel salad (Aunt Ruth); signature dinner rolls (Gail),and outstanding chocolate brownies with ice cream for dessert (Vickie).

After lunch our group moved back into the living room for more fun with stories and lively conversation.

It was a great day enjoyed by all!  Thank you Ruthie for providing us with another memorable event!!

Love,  One of the Cousins, Mary
