April 19, 2013. Harper, Texas. Christmas.

Tonight we celebrated Christmas with our friends Joyce and Robbie.  Ken and I took them out to dinner to a German restaurant in Fredericksburg.  It was our Christmas gift to them this year.  It took until now for us to be able to give them their gift.

A few years ago, we started giving Dave and Irene the same gift.  The rule was that we would take them out for dinner for their Christmas gift but they had to get to where we were.   Last year we celebrated our Christmas with them in July in Nova Scotia.  The year before we celebrated in Texas.  It was fun and it was festive, so we decided to steal the idea with Robbie and Joyce.

It seemed a good idea to give a gift to couples who have everything.   Joyce and Robbie enjoyed the gift too.   It was a treat for us as well,  as Robbie drove his car and we all four enjoyed the food and the company.   The restaurant was in the Bavarian Inn just at the edge of Fredericksburg and is called the Freilich, or something like that.  The food was excellent.   We did not sing any Christmas carols.
