Christmas Plans
Thanks to "super planners" Ryan and Brianna we actually have Christmas plans for this year, a well as food assignments. Please take note:

Friday, December 21 - Lindsey and Harper arrive. Dad also arrives. They will rent a car and go to Ryan's where we will stay for a few days before Christmas.

Saturday, December 22 - Ashley is bringing Landon to Houston where everyone may meet him. Ask Ashley what time they will be coming. We will meet at Ryan's and decorate cookies/make goodies for caroling on Christmas Eve. Dad will spring for good Texas BBQ. We will be making sugar cookies, peanut clusters and truffles. If we have time, we could play basketball or baseball at the park.

Monday, December 24 - Poodle arrives! Yeah! We will meet out at Ryan's to go caroling to friends in Katy. Carrie and Bethany will bring petit fours and eclairs. We will visit Stewards, Gebauers, and anyone y'all suggest.

Tuesday, December 25 - Christmas Day. We plan stocking exchange at 11 am, Christmas dinner at 1 pm. Ryan has planned a great dinner with the following assignments:
Turkey - smoked by Doziers
Ham - Ryan
Funeral potatoes - Brianna
Rolls - MOMTHEBOMB
Veggies and crackers with dip - Poodle
Spinach salad - Fernash
Cranberry Salad - Bethany
Dessert - Bex and MOMTHEBOMB

When we say dinner is at 1 pm, it is actually at 1 pm. Ryan has invited the missionaries, so prepare your food for 14-15 people. Brianna's parents are arriving at 5 pm, so we need to be finished, hence the 1pm timeframe.

Thursday, December 27 - Ryan, Brianna and her parents (Patty and Dave) will be going to Brazos Bend State Park. Anyone is welcome to come along.

Sunday, December 30 - Devin Michael Funk will be blessed at their sacrament meeting, which is at 11:00 am. The Chapel is on Braeswood Drive.

Monday, December 31 - New Years Party at Ryan's - We do not have food assignments, but will post them if you tell us if you're coming. They will invite Suzy and Josh. You may invite anyone you wish, per Ryan. Just let him know.

Any other activities anyone would like to add - please let me know, and we can arrange them and coordinate via blogdom.

I'm so excited to see everyone!!!!

Thanks to Ryan and Brianna for generously opening up their home and for being super organizers.
