We enjoyed TV and dinner with friends tonight.



I love the lights in their kitchen.

360/365 Game Night

It's become a Christmas tradition for us to host a game night when we are in Miami in December. It's one of the few ways to see all the people we care about in one place! It's also a lot of fun and a great way to use up those Christmas leftovers :)

Here was the Game Night 2009 crew (Matt took some of these candids):

Vicki, Roney and Susie

Cathi

Susie sitting pretty

Larry and little Gabby

Even Sundae came out to play. Gabby chased her around the house calling "Meow Meow" until they both were wiped out. But Sundae found refuge in Cathi's lap.

My mom joined in too.

I took these photos. I love it when Matt gets a chance to hang out with Larry. Larry is one of his oldest friends and a true geek at heart. They can get together and talk code for hours.

Vicki the game master

Susie and Roney - reminding us that Roney really is playing and deserves to be heard.

David and Ashley hanging out for a little while

And game night was too much for Gabby.
