Christmas Balls

My husband and I were invited to our daughter and her husbands house for Christmas Dinner.They gave birth to two of my grandchildren,Jake 12 and Ella 9. We love visiting them in their home.We go visit their rooms and sit on their beds and talk while their mom and dad are finishing getting dinner on the table. It's fun seeing what books they're reading and how their rooms are decorated.

My daughter prepared an absolutely delish roast beef dinner,with twice baked stuffed potatoes,carrots and cranberry salad. So perfectly yummy!!! We had peppermint ice cream and some really special cookies for dessert. After dinner we played Apples to Apples.

Between dinner and dessert I was admiring their Christmas tree.They have so many different ornaments that they have collected over their 18years together. I commented that the tree had a delicate feminine feel about it,my daughter said we didn't put balls on it this year. I said, Oh yes I see! Twelve year old Jake from across the room said Yeah! it must be a girl tree because it has NO Balls!!!!!! We just rolled in laughter!!!! Kids are so much fun!! That was the best laugh I had during the Christmas season.
