WHO: Everyone! IC/OC
WHEN: Thursday, 21 December 1999
WHERE: The Manor House, Macmillan Park
SUMMARY: Mid-Season (Christmas) Party hosted by the Montrose Magpies at Macmillan Park, cocktail dresses and blazers suggested.
RATING: Low

The Macmillan Family welcomes you to to Macmillan Park for the Mid-Season Yule party for all of Scottish Quidditch (and then some).

The Manor House is decorated for the season, with each room on the first floor having a display of its own. The public areas of the garden are also decorated and kept at a comfortable temperature (as long as you are wearing a cloak) with plenty of warming charms. Christmas crackers are available on all of the tables for all of your paper crown and terrible joke needs.

Finger foods and drinks (alcoholic and non) are plentiful. Eggnog can be made either way and if you want a hot chocolate with a splash of whisky, nobody is going to bat an eye. Entertainment is provided by the Tomnahurich Quartet and the Calanais Singers throughout the night in the main hall. A selection of seasonal songs in the muggle and wizarding traditions were planned, but both groups will take requests. They will be performing both together and separately.

For any children who joined their parents in the festivities, they have their own party going on upstairs in the rarely-used nursery (think very large and extensive playroom with bedrooms nearby and a schooling area). There are kid friendly foods, including sandwiches, personal pizzas in seasonal shapes, a Hot Chocolate Bar, and cherry flavored fizzy drinks. There are, of course, plenty of sweets to be had as well.

	Maddock would have arrived not early but not late either. Otherwise known as decent arrival time. Maddock's suit is a bit more festive because it's green. He is actually wearing the santa hat because the Little McGs told him to. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ellie arrives with Alasdair. She is dressed in lovely red suit. After seeing Alasdair's Santa hat, Ellie totally fashioned herself a similar elf hat, but in the same shade of green at his suit. Low key matching and ready for a ~~messy~~ good time. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Maddock is up for posing because they are clearly the most festive with their matching red/green and hats. He's also in a good mood so Maddock probably stole a kiss for the cameras too. He's being cheeky. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The thing about these two is that it is always a competition to out do the other. So once he starts being cheeky, she meets and raises it one higher. Alasdair earns at least one "I'd put you back on the naughty list, but you might actually see that as a good thing." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Maybe that's my goal," Alasdair would say with a wicked smile. "I expect at least one visit to the mistletoe tonight. Usual hiding spot?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The little McGs catch sight of him (how can you miss that hat?) as they make their way to the kiddie party and insist on the detour to say hi! What a nice hat!!! See? It's super festive now! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Arrivals maddocked 2017-12-22 05:32 am UTC (link)
	Maddock agrees that the little McGs were right and he should have never have doubted them. They should see Ellie though! She has an elf hat, so they match. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Arrivals avoidretrograde 2017-12-22 06:07 am UTC (link)
	Little!Ellie nods very seriously and says See? They have good ideas! Although both do like Elsie's elf hat! Tiny Ellie even says that if he had a bigger beard he could be like a young Father Christmas! But he'd need presents to give out. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Arrivals maddocked 2017-12-22 06:31 am UTC (link)
	Maddock says that he doesn't want to take Father Christmas' job away, and he's better at making presents than he is... though Father Christmas doesn't have little McGs and MacFustys to help him. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Kenna definitely came by to say when she say him! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh the littlest seeker! Kenna gets hug, and a thank you for the cookies. (Reply to this) (Parent)
