Fats Kaplin and Kristi Rose Make Christmas Come Early

The best one yet.

Kristi Rose rolled her eyes and told me I always say that, and yet....it was the BEST ONE YET!

I just don't know if I could possibly adore those two any more than I do. And when they said it felt like they were just coming visit family, albeit slightly eccentric family, I was inordinately flattered, and we feel like they are family as well.

Their music, as always, was stunning, and we had dramatic readings (the Christmas Carol), magic by Fats, and even a bit of dance. It was utterly glorious. There was great food, there were adorable kids, it really was almost revoltingly perfect ---rom my point of view anyway! Numerous people told me they finally felt like it was Christmas and we certainly did ourselves.

Never again will we let a year go by without them being here, and that's NOT even because they made fun of me all night!

Merry Christmas, with all my love, to Fats, Kristi Rose, and all of you that made the evening so special!
