Items Left Christmas Day

I have a few items that need to be retrieved or delivered, if I know who they belong to.

Jackie - you have a couple cookie trays I think are yours; and a plate that the VA ham was on.

There is a giant round thermomenter - I don't know whose present this is.

If you are missing anything, please let me know and I will look.

Thank you all for coming and brining your food and presents. It was an enjoyable day.

Christmas Day Gathering

Well, I had to post this picture just because Blaine always posts pictures. I wanted everyone to see that Florida does have a fall season with changing leaves (this is a Mother's).

Getting ready for the Christmas Day gathering of family. These are the people I think will be coming: Me, Meghan, Mother, Jackie, Art, Doris, Lynda, Blaine, Judy, Marshal, Diane (don't know when she have to go to work), Jenifer, Scott, Laura, Tom, Gail, John, and Karen (18). If I missed anyone, or if there is someone else who wants to come, please let me know.

Below are the food items I think will be on the menu and the person's name of who is brining (if I know correctly). If there is no name beside it, I will be responsible for it or someone can offer to bring.

Ham (regular) - Blaine has bought it and I will heat it

Ham (Virginia) - Lynda has bought it and Jackie will heat it

Scalloped pototoes - Elizabeth (I already have)

Green Beans - Jackie

Corn - Elizabeth (I already have)

Sweet Potatoes

Apricots - Jackie

Mac & Cheese - Elizabeth (I already have)

Noodles - Judy (I put this because she brings it every year and everyone looks forward to it)

Salad - if Gail would bring - once again, see above comment for noodles

Biscuits

Tea

Water

Sodas (like Diet Coke, regular coke)

Wine

Desserts: Pumpkin Pie (Mother was going to ask Blaine but let me know if can't because Meghan really likes pumkin pie and I can pick one up at Sam's or Publix); and maybe some other delicious goodies like Diane usually makes (hint)

If I have missed any important food item that anyone would like to have, please post. Please post if you have something else you would like to bring. And if I have your name by something and you don't want to bring it, that's ok - just let me know.

Meghan and I are busily getting the house ready and are very excited about Christmas day (well, I know she is). The tree is up, the presents bought and wrapped and under the tree. We are still putting up ornaments - I forget how many there are.

Hope everone that is traveling from out of town has a safe trip and I AM excited about seeing everyone!

Plantation Christmas at Gamble Mansion

L to R: Mary Statzer, Meghan, Elizabeth & Gail.

The Cantinieres UDC chapter hosted the Workroom for the annual Christmas
fund raiser held on December 12th.
Jackie attended as well, but was else where when this photo was taken.

Gen Lee's Christmas List

Well, I finally pinned him down and it is posted under the Bird of Paradise comments.

Christmas is comming!

I am surprised that Jackie has not started this yet, but here is a post for people to put in the comment section any items that they want for Christmas. Actually I have not come up with something myself and will have to come back and put it in the comments. (I have really come up with something, but putting a $1,500 lens for my camera down will, I am sure, not be very helpful to anyone.) So everyone add a comment. (Ha, Jackie. I got this up before you did.)


This does not have much to do with Christmas, but I had to post some type of photo.
