Just imagine ....
It is Christmas Eve, and you have finished packing and decorating
your chateau ready for the next few days of celebrations .....
The rooms are sparkling in silver and white
champagne is poured
the kitchen is spotless
the silver is polished and the crystal gleaming
fires are lit, and christmas trees watch over promising gifts
and outside the door you have set up a beautiful display to welcome your guests ...
now ... there are six places laid at your table so tell me,
just who is it that you've invited to such a wonderful evening?

ReplyDeleteI could live in a chateau like this!
ReplyDeleteI feel much better about my chateau, Sharon, now that you have described it thus. Would you have any idea where those wonderful lightshades in the kitchen image come from, by any chance? They are so exactly what I need.
ReplyDeletei have invited my loveliest, funniest, brainiest, creative friends who would appreciate the wonder of such an evening.

On Christmas Eve only the closest members of the family are gathering in our house("chateau") that means 10 adults an almost 3 years old grandson and a baby girl as granddaughter and the head of the family is our father celebrating his 92th birthday that day.

Oh everything is beautiful! We always host a Christmas Eve dinner after Mass. We include our closest friends and some who do not have family nearby. There is always plenty of simply prepared food and good conversation. I don't think I would change a thing. Bonnie
ReplyDeleteI would invite YoU because I think it would be nice to meet you...next my husband and children.
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful! exactly where I would want to be with my family & friends on Christmas Eve. xxpeggybraswelldesign.com
ReplyDeleteThat chateau is incredibly gorgeous. How I would love to be invited for such a dinner party. I would invite my family but we would need many more chairs. Love the creamy greige blends. So utterly elegant yet warm and inviting!

ReplyDeleteWonderful place to have a Christmas party.
Sharon, it's not going to be a hard decision at all whom to invite for an intimate Christmas dinner party. To this lovely setting, I'll invite my best friend and her husband, and my husband's best friend and his wife.
