Christmas at Jennie and Curt's house

Was originally planned for Christmas Day but the weather forecasted sounded nasty so we re-scheduled it for the Sunday after Christmas. Mom, Dad, Sheila, Alicia and my five headed up there on that beautiful blue skied morning. We were treated to fantastic food (of course) and great company. Here are the treats that followed the wonderful meal.
What's Christmas without sugar?? Right??
After the meal is consumed and cleaned up we all sit around the dining room table and commence to play Bingo! a fun family favorite that everyone can play! Each person who gets a Bing0! gets to select a prize from the pile until the pile is gone. This year there were puzzles, 12 packs of Sundrop, flashlights, popcorn tins, reusable shopping bags, photo albums, boxes of candy, fuzzy socks........... etc..... I think we get better and better at buying inexpensive prizes as the years go on. Fun is enjoyed by all!

The Bingo! crew....
Yup - almost have a Bingo!! The best part of playing this game is that this particular set used to belong to our beloved aunts, Edna and Lavina, that I purchased at their estate auction. Its a set especially designed for seniors - kind of a large print bingo game!
