Kate swallowed a bite of potatoes and wiped her mouth. "It begins tomorrow night. There is a tree lighting and fireworks. The real fun begins with our family hosting the first Ball. That will be in a week. This week will be busy. The invitations were made and sent while you were sick." She loved this day, it was free day before they would be shopping, getting the house ready. "Ann and made plans a month ago. It is takes our servants and others to help. We have over a hundred people invited. The town hosts a large feast and Heidi has table set our by her tavern."<br/>Sara chimed, "There is a large bonfire too."<br/>Another servant a shy and quiet girl of 15 that helps Ann in the kitchen spoke for the first time ever at the table, "In town we make snow people an Kate takes us skatin' at tha big lake." The girl was dressed in a light blue blouse with a dark blue skirt. She has light blue eyes and blond hair, a light red scar runs down over her left cheek.
