When I arrived at the Biesiadecki's home in Rockford on Christmas Eve day, "postcard" snow was gently falling on the ground and it really felt like Christmas. As I was walking in the home I said.."Could it get any more perfect?" My question was answered as I entered the Biesadecki home. The table was set, presents were piled high near the tree, candles glowed...it was the ultimate setting for a picture perfect Christmas.
Rae is the mother hen of this family and she is officially on the list as one of my favorite people for the following reasons.
1. She offered me a cocktail as soon as I entered.
2. She has amazing style and her house was decorated to a tee for Christmas.
3. Her table setting for Christmas consisted of exquisite detail... an ornament for each person and a lottery scratch ticket on everyone's plate.
4. She knows Santa..and pulled in a special favor to have the big guy visit her grandchildren on this day.
Rae gave me a big lesson on how to do up Christmas...I took notes and will take her lead for next year!
