I love Christmas with family...we will have 25ish, 4 generations, kids are well behaved, food is great, liquor is top notch and the card games later in day are classics....until my FIL decides it time to spark a fatty inside and his daughters flip out, the men go outside and pacify the good old baw and partake with him..
