Christmas, Mini Reunion and Car Status
Posted on December 28, 2009 - Filed Under Crash, Holiday, Year Three
Enjoyed most of the Christmas holiday this year.
Mom and my older boys stopped by early in the day for gift exchanges. I was tired and not feeling so hot but enjoyed seeing everyone.
I had a small gathering of friends over for dinner on Christmas Eve. It was a quiet night with good dinner and drinks. A little drama later in the night but disaster averted and all is well.
Toni dropped Alex off at the house Christmas morning at 9am. Barb and I scooped him up and packed for her parents house at Lake Lawrence.
Once settled at Barbs parents we decided to take the kids for a walk down to the playground. Barb, her brother Pacer and a combination of kids all marching out into the cold air for some fun.
The kids enjoyed time on the swings and that adults enjoyed the spectacular view of Mount Rainier and the mist rising off of the calm lake. It was relaxing and nice, which is a change from past Christmas gatherings.
Dinner was excellent, both vegan and non-vegan. A little something for everyone.
Was home by 7:30 with a car load of passed out children.

This past Saturday Barb and I went to El Toro to see Alicia and Sean Fowler, in town from Singapore. They invited a lot of folks from Facebook and it turned into a mini Wilson/Stadium/Bellermine Prep reunion.
Amazing to reconnect with people I have not seen for over 20 years. Lots of good conversations and memories. A great time! Even downed a Jägerbomb faster than the folks that drink every weekend. Still got it! haha

My Infiniti M45 is still int he shop. The new estimated date of return to me is January 8th. I want my car back so bad right now.
I am driving a rental, and I’m not fond of it to be honest. It is a 2009 Jeep Cherokee Laredo and it just feels cheap when I compare it to my M45. Oh well, only one more week of driving it right?
