Family Christmas

This guest post from Lewis Beck

Every year my wife’s family gets together for three straight days around Christmas. Each individual family spends Christmas Eve and Christmas day at their own homes, but they alternate whose house they go to the day after Christmas. We end up spending three days and two nights together. It’s always fun because it’s a chance for all of the siblings and their spouses to hang out as well as all of our kids and their cousins. This year is our first year to host the three day adventure at our house. I was a little worried about all of the expenses involved, but my wife suggested that I shop electricity rates texas providers to make sure we have a good rate on electricity so there won’t be any big surprises on our bill after our company leaves. Everybody is always really good about bringing food and chipping in for groceries during their stay so I’m not worried about that. Before long, we are probably going to have to move this party to a cabin because we’re eventually going to outgrow everybody’s houses.
