My extended birthday is nearly done

It is now 11pm in Texas, and everyone has gone home, so it is just Meg, Dave, John and I chatting. John and his dad are talking work stuff and Meg and I are mostly listening...

We had 15 here for dinner, and have decided to make the table somewhat bigger for Xmas day lunch as there will be another 2 people to sit at the table! 
I opened my presents from NZ this afternoon when Hannah and Tim  came over - many thanks those people, I loved my cards and gifts!  The Texans gave me a book, a sweater, and some almond chocolate :)
Hannah gave me a lovely top and Tim found a zester and cheese grater that  I have been wanting - good job!  I have new earrings from John that I have put in tonight.
 Tomorrow I think we are going to the ice-skating rink here in the Woodlands - I will watch but I think John will don a pair of skates.
Like everyone else we are getting organized for the big day, and I think I will need some beauty sleep to get through all the socializing.
