We picked up my brother, Ammon, from the bowling alley where he works and drove to Uncle Dennis' and Aunt Michele's house for this year's Hooper Family Christmas Party. Aunt Mary's family lives further south than the rest of us, so they can't always come to the get-togethers. Because of that, it's always a special treat when they come. This year because the others from Mary's family were sick, it was Mary, Angie, and Angie's husband, Tony. The hot soups really hit the spot.
One of the highlights of the night came when Mom pulled out the musical pipes she'd just purchased with numbers strewn across a poster board to allow us to play "Frosty the Snowman." For banging on a metal pipe with (in my case) a spoon, it sounded quite impressive.
