After a long flight back home, we landed and went to our homes. Since it was a long flight, we decided to take a nap before having to be at Ted's parents' house so Riss and I could help with the baking. We did end up napping for a few hours before getting the energy to move and get our things together for the party to bring it over to the house to get ready there. Riss went through her things, finding what to wear for tonight.

"Hmm..." She mumbles, chewing her lip. 

"Need help?"

"Maybe."

"I'm coming." He grins, walking over.

She laughs a little and flips through the dresses in the closet while waiting.

"Hmmm...that one." He points out a white dress.

She pulls it out and looks at it.

"Good choice."

"I have good taste. I know."

"You do." She says amusedly. 

"Just like you do."

"Of course."

"And then when we get back here tonight, we can put the tree up and decorate the house."

"Sounds like a plan." She agrees. 

"Mistletoe..." He grins. 

"Like you really need an excuse for a kiss."

"I don't but still."

"I know."

"It's still fun to do."

"Of course. I know that."

"Love you."

"Love you too."

She steals a really quick kiss before gathering the rest of her things that she'll need to get ready for the party later. Once everything is gathered, she changes into more sensible clothes. 

"There. All ready."

"Beautiful."

"You always think so." She says as they get their jackets and shoes on. 

"Because it's true."

"That's what you're supposed to think."

"Because I'm your husband and I love you."

"I love you too. Lover." She smiles, kissing him. 

"Ready to go?" She asks him. 

"Yup." He nods.

They makes sure they have what they need before leaving the bedroom, grabbing the keys, locking the door and getting into the car. They drive to the 'big house' and go inside.

"We're here!" You declare.

"In the living room sweetheart!" We heard Ted Sr call.

Riss and Justin take their jackets off and hang them up, before heading into the living room.

"Hi Daddy." She greets him with a hug.

"Hi sweetheart." He greets as he hugs back. 

"Hope you got enough rest."

"I'm much better. Between sleeping on the plane and our nap, I feel fine."

"Well that's good."

"Where's Momma?"

"In the kitchen, getting everything together for the baking."

"I'm going to go help. I'm sure Jussi will keep you company."
