my son and family coming from Illinois to visit at Christmas. Brother coming from Albemare,NC. All staying at my 1,000 sq. ft. apt. Not to mention Daughter and family who live close by. And then there is my sister's video call on Christmas day from Aruba, where she spends her Christmas's. She is usually in her swim suit and a rum concoction in hand.

Never been there, but I'll bet your right.
I do believe that Christmas will be here at our house this year.
Youngest daughter, SIL and the grandsons will be here from SC.
The in laws and my wife's Grandmother will all be in attendance.

We have a large home and over the years it has always been the gathering place for the Holidays. We'll have the same group as we did at Thanksgiving, plus our Daughter's in laws, our daughter in laws step children, and our estranged 17 year old Grand Daughter who wasn't here for Thanksgiving, but PMd and asked if she and her boy friend can come for Christmas. I said of course you can but you cannot stay over night.

We had 10 people around the Thanksgiving table and will probably double that for Christmas Eve. My Wife loves it.

Hey JEBar, we are doing our traditional Christmas in Arizona. Son and his family are coming out for two weeks. I have been loading ammo for the shooting marathon that will ensue with the Henry's and Vaqueros.

My Son in law is deployed in Qatar. My Daughter and two young Grandsons 1&4 are coming to stay with us for a few weeks. Haven't seen them in two years. Have never seen the youngest one. I can't wait.

Spending Christmas at home this year. It'll be quiet as we're a bunch of infidels around here. We'll enjoy a day of rest. Spent last Christmas with my mother in Oklahoma due to her husbands passing on the 19th. I'll make a trip to go up and see her in January.

I'll be going to take my wife to the airport Christmas day[a.m.], as she is meeting her sister and family in Brussels and other places. I can't take international travel anymore; too much hassle. So, off they go, then stop off at her brother's place on the way back from airport[close], do things there, then chill out, re. range work, till she gets back. Soloing for two weeks. Gadz, I have to eat my own cooking! :shock: . She'll have fun and I'll be fine. Staying right here.
