The Pattersons hit Mesquite

Every year my family has a family Christmas party. This year the Pattersons came to Mesquite and for the first time in I don't know how many years all 6 of the Patterson kids were there. The only people missing were my 2 nieces from Idaho, and my nephew who was finishing up boot camp. Monumental task let me tell ya. We had a great time. Each year we usually pick a theme for the food. This year we chose to eat Chinese. My kids were so excited for this, Will especially. We had Chinese fans on hand, hung Chinese lanterns, had fortune cookies to spare and of course we had plenty of chopsticks on hand for those willing to try. We played games, the kids opened presents. Plenty of fun for all. It's one of the few times during the year that I actually get to spend time with my whole family. Look forward to it every year.
