Christmas Eve Dinner & Bok Tower Gardens

Much to the chargrin of my family members I purchased a Groupon for Christmas at Bok Tower Gardens. I have never been there and thought it would be a change of pace for our regular Christmas. Since we were having such a mild winter it was also nice to take advantage of the beautiful weather.

Bok Tower Gardens gets decked out for the Christmas holiday. A different local company decorates each room in a theme and then you vote for your favorite. My favorite was the beach house

I love how they hung the air plants - beautiful!

Following Bok Towers we had a nice Christmas Eve dinner with Nancy and her side of the family. It was a lovely Christmas.

Christmas Family Reunion

We had a mini Wallis Family reunion the Sunday before Christmas. It was great to get together with everyone. We met at my Aunt Diana and Uncle Turner's house in Kissimmee. Margaret, Charlie, Megan, Aunt Mary, Aunt Chris and her husband came as well as Diana's mom. We ate, and talked. It had been quite some years it seems since we had last gotten together.
