To the nines

This house we're staying at is just beautifully decorated. It's hard to not get into the holiday spirit with all the festive touches around.

As a special surprise, my sister-in-law had a pro photographer visit her house this morning to immortalize the get together. Complete and utter mayhem; the two year olds would not cooperate regardless of what the bribe was. I felt a bit sorry for the young lady.

Another fabulous dinner served, some more family members joined. In the end, the visit went by without the epic Trivial Pursuit battle of the sexes; just as well, the men know they don't stand a chance.
