Oh Christmas

A sleep-in and present opening made for a lazy morning before we headed out to Almonte.
 
The table looked beautiful .....

... and then it looked full of people and food. Ha-ha.

Granny had an evening of fun activities planned and we were all giggling

There was a rousing game of charades. We had so much fun I can't remember who won!
K was a great sport and let the boys decorate her as a Christmas tree.
She has a lot of patience for her nephews!!

And the performers of the group had has laughing with their prepared skit.

Oops-Catch Up Post

Here's the thing about years when Christmas is on the weekend ...

... it can feel like it's not Christmas until BOOM ... it's Christmas!!

 

A rink in the backyard? Good idea.

A rink in someone else's backyard. Great idea!!!

Charlie has completed his training sessions. More work at home is required.

See what happens if I try to sleep through morning walk??

 

Just....Wow!

 

If the Benny is turned up then the dealer's team are automatically the makers....huh?

I don't think GrandpaT knew what he was getting himself into when he offered to teach us how to play euchre. 

The rules for this game are absolutely random! 

M and A were in stitches watching Ern and I learn the game.

Thank you for being a patient teacher GrandpaT.

 

Today was M's eye surgery. So next time you see him .... no glasses.
