Comment from Pearl Edwards
I loved this story of a family Christmas with a bit of matchmaking thrown in to keep mum occupied on Christmas day. Well told with humour and family love. The four T's were a great combination of names, Terry. Leaving me smiling,
cheers,

Comment from Sandra Nelms-Ludwig
This was a fun read. Weren't all of these characters in another story except for the grandpa bar owner? It's a good story with a well-developed plot. The plot was not too rushed and seemed realistic. Thanks for sharing. I hope you have a blessed Christmas Terry. I will email you some photos of my tree.

Comment from amahra
This was a great read...very entertaining. I was so sure Mom and Clyde had eloped. And I loved the ending with the comments of the children.
"...But after a couple of margaritas, everything was just fine." [LOL!]

Amahra, thank you for reading, Terry.
Comment from LJbutterfly
"Whatever," is so typical of a teenager. I enjoyed reading about the planning of the Christmas party, but something seemed awfully familiar. Have we met Ric and his country band before? Wasn't he playing at the county fair? I don't remember all of the story, but I do remember the music. If I'm right, this is a great continuation. Very enjoyable.

Yest was two stories that came together. Thanksgiving and Chirstmas, Texas Style and the four parts about the HotHouse Bar, where you met Bad Boy Ric and the Bartender, Jennifer. Thanks for reading, Terry.
Comment from Soledadpaz
Interesting continuation of the Four T's story.
I detect a merging of stories. Nicely done.
Looks like Willowmina got the best Christmas gift ever and I suspect she was mightily entertained.

Comment from Pam Lonsdale
I think I want to attend the Texas State Fair so that I can get one of those chicken sandwiches with the pimento, jalapeno ranch, and pickles on it!
I seem to recall that you've written stories of women who are large and in charge before:-) That tells me a lot about the respect you have for women.
A nice Christmas tale with a happy ending. Merry Christmas, Terry.

Comment from Jay Squires
What can I say? Another remarkable Terry Broxson story. I started reading it, then went down to the review box, sure that I'd already posted a review on it. I don't remember now how the other story progressed, but at some point one crossed over into the next. I think the first one must have ended with Grandma's odd request to be entertained for Christmas.
No matter. This one is a keeper.

Comment from irishauthorme
Great family Christmas story! And wow, 42 people for Thanksgiving, and then a whopping 112 for the Christmas party? A Texas-sized party!
The 4 T's really outdid themselves, planning a two-part celebration that pleased everyone.
Good work,
irish

Comment from Jannypan (Jan)
It seemed the Ts party was a grand ol' success, Terry.
I enjoyed reading your follow-up story. You did a great
job with the details. I could picture everything. I thought
the phone call from Vegas would announce they were
married. Maybe that's next, maybe not. Maybe they won
big at the casino.
Thanks for sharing, Jan
