Not having had the opportunity to see Margaret the evening before due to their late arrival, Lucy and Mimi wasted no time getting re/acquainted on Sunday morning.
They were great sports, tackling an absolutely full day.
After a morning "Christmas in April" during which we went over all the wonderful gifts from so many people brought over by Roz and Lucy, we were off to a marathon three hour Dim Sum session with a gaggle of good friends.
Afterwards, it was to home for just a few hours rest (and a fashion show of all the great new clothes that SAM got for Christmas) before we woke Margaret up for more rice cereal, a bath, then dinner with the Koos. And I mean dinner with the Koos.
George's brothers were there with us for the most enormous hot pot dinner I have ever experienced.
Margaret was an absolute champ, managing to stay up for the entire dinner and not going down until after we got home at around 9:30 when we usually have her in bed at around 7:00.
In fact, I was down before Margaret. Some congestion and a sore throat managed, (with the help of some beer at dinner) to worsen into a full fledged cold, and I was off to bed as soon as we got home, leaving the very gracious women of the household to catch up and feed Margaret.
Thank goodness for family.

Roz can't be THAT tired after the trip if she still had the muscle to compete with the Koo kids for Margaret's affections.
Welcome Roz and Lucy and welcome Margaret to the world of solid chow. Can C Rations be far behind!!
I am so envious and so sorry that you had to endure another 3 hours on that awful plance. And poor Daisey, yes??!! A long day for her as well.
