Dinner Party

For the past 6 or 7 years we have had a holiday dinner and gift exchange with our friends in Buffalo. It started as a small gathering in our student apartments and has grown in the past few years to include more friends.
We hosted the party this year. Everyone enjoyed some appetizers and drinks while we waited for the dinner to be ready.Everyone brings a dish to pass, which makes it a whole lot easier on the host. This year we had baked ziti, crockpot chicken, sweet potato soup, green bean casserole, potato pancakes, risotto, cheesy potatoes, and various sweet treats. We all ate way too much, as usual. Everything was delicious. Owen enjoyed the evening as well. He had alot of girls paying attention to him and fighting over who got to hold him next.
After dinner we did our secret santa gift exchange. Dennis got some nice cigars and I got a book, wine, and some yummy smelling bath goodies. We played some games for awhile and watched Christmas Vacation and both got everyone laughing of course.
After some good food, good drinks, and good conversation a few partygoers were done for the night.
