By 8 p.m. the football fans began gathering around the TV.

I played a numbers game with the children, who chose a gift when their number was called. These are the last three with uncalled numbers.

Waiting for their number to be called.

Sarah and Emma. Emma enjoyed her gift of gummies
I had a few gifts for the smallest children who did not understand the numbers game.

After food and games, we just enjoyed being together.
