How many people can we fit in the photo booth?

Christmas always comes with lots of Trauths in one small space and lots of good food. This school of fish somehow finds time to come together every year for one special event - The Annual Trauth Christmas Party. It's been happening since my dad was kid and I couldn't imagine spending a year without attending it. Even if your last name isn't Trauth you are welcome to come - to all the spouses, Les, Brandon and others - we are glad you can come. Since Katrina messed up our Christmas meeting place, our school of fish travels from one relative's home to another and sometimes families are left out. Teri, David and Tabitha with all our heart we wish you could have been here. This year this famous party was held at my parent's house. And for anyone who didn't think I had a New Orleans accent before, just wait to watch videos of this event and be amazed. The "r's" drop and second syllables are exaggerated. No joke and I'm not the only one who sounds like that. Where ya at dawlin? Accents and laughter go hand in hand as Uncle Tim hopes to find a snuggie in the gift pile. But the gift pile is not the only attraction. The question on everyone's mind is who brought what to eat. And if you're a Trauth you know the rule is "first come first serve." Let me just list out the fabulous menu and let you drool a little
Menu:
Crab dip
Crab Pies
Dennis' mini burgers
PawPaw's stuffed peppers
MawMaw's macaroni
Nan's bacon dip
Meatballs in wine sauce
Roast beef sandwhiches (hot and messy)
Amarretto punch
Yule Log
Bourbon cake
oatmeal m&m cookies
fudge
stuffed mushrooms
cookies
candy wreath
mini donuts
pralines
Shrimp mold
Duck
I'm sure there was more and every year the menu changes a bit but it's all delicious. Go ahead be jealous.
This year though, a new tradition was made with my homemade photobooth. Mom and Dad have this perfect little square hallway that allowed for a backdrop and camera with a remote to provide pure entertainment. All you need is a basket of props and a goofy spirit. And as everyone knows we have the goofiness down packed. I think this photobooth might have to appear every year. I've created a monster. At one point in the afternoon my cousin Crystal and I decided to see how many people we could fit in the photobooth. Let's just say we had a lot of people in there and it wasn't even half of the people at the party. From games of boudreaux throw in the backyard to chasing new little great grandchildren there is never a dull moment in our family and I like it that way.
