Joyeux Noel & Happy Holidays

Here's some highlights from my holiday week.  

It all started with a belated birthday celebration for my Dad.  I decided that getting Chinese food would be fun since my dad loves it so much.  Since I didn't get a cake we put the candles in the chicken wings and sang to him.  I think he really liked it.  The candles didn't even fall over when he blew them out!

Note to self:  Don't over eat when it comes to Chinese food.. yikes!

 On Christmas Eve we had a big party at my dad's house where most of the fam from his side came to visit.  My mini cousin Emilie made a really nice dvd of photos in tribute to Grandpa and my other cousin Jean Louis got a sweet tee that said I love being a prick.

On Christmas morning Dad, Mary, Becker, and I gathered round the tree and got ready to open our presents from one another.  Just as we were about to start Mary asked me a question so we all turned to look at her.  Just then... her chair started to crack and she started a slow descent towards the piano bench.  Luckily she wasn't hurt and we were all able to have ourselves a great laugh.  It was strange how good the timing was though...

Here's a good pic of Dad holding his troll child!
