Surprise! I flew Karen's parents in for
Christmas week. Karen had no idea they were coming. She
was quite surprised to say the least. |

Lots of presents from Santa. |

Karen gets one thing and one thing only for
Christmas.
TONS of China. |

Pat amazed by all the pretty shiny china. |

Omer struggles with all the sticky tape. |

Karen wonders when it will all end. |

Pat loves her purse holder. Whatever that
is. |

I was not kidding about the china. |

I think the total was 8 coffee cups. 6 salad /
pasta bowls, and 6 bread plates. |

Father and daughter prepare for Christmas dinner
at Ross Ranch. We are serving a 19 pound prime rib roast for 8
people. Yeah, I ended up cutting off 7 pounds and freezing it.
Twelve pounds was more than enough for 8 people.
|

Doesn't all that china look lovely. A
wonderful Christmas dinner. |
Yum. A 12 pound 5 rib prime rib. Was
originally 19 pound 8 ribs. I thought that was way too big for 8
people. So I lopped off 7 pounds and froze for another day.
