family photo friday: punch and appetizers

1968. From the far left, clockwise: uncle John, mum, uncle Bob, mum's cousin Sue. My mum is 15.

It's almost that time of year again. The time of year when you consider including some velvet in your wardrobe. When you eat way too much delicious food off of makeshift surfaces (e.g. your lap or a folding card table). When you can stop stressing about daily things and worry more about what presents you're going to give to friends and family, what to wear to that christmas party, and which new cookie recipe to try. The countdown is on, for me at least. December 16th is the day I officially welcome the holidays into my life. I CANNOT WAIT!
