recap / update

So I realize that i'm long due for an entry. What a better way to spend my 3rd day on the could due to suffering from strep than update my blog a little. I'm sure I can manage that. Where to begin... hmmmm....

So christmas I got out of the city for a while. A whole four days. Which was fabulous. Headed to rocky on the evening of the 23rd. The 24th was spent in the shop finishing christmas presents. Nothing like procrastination and last minute... :) Christmas eve we went to McMeekins for the annual christmas eve gathering. This may be better known as the christmas eve pisser. Seeing as thats how things usually end up...

Christmas day I was *happily*(NOT!) awoken by dad and tyler jumping on my bed and cranking pretty woman as loud as possible beside my head. Now this was at 10:30 am. So fair enough, it was later in the morning. But I would have happily slept longer. And done without the Roy Orbison as the first thing I wake up to... Later in the afternoon we headed in to Red Deer to do the first of the family christmas things.

Boxing Day tyler and I headed over to grandmas in Rimbey. Did the whole family thing there again. Fun times. Nice to see everyone.

The 27th I spent at the ranch. Enjoying the outdoors and working in the shop. It was beautiful weather outside. That evening I headed in to town to see cayley and her family as it will be the last time I see them for a very long time. :( We had good fun finishing the keg of Toms homemade brew and playing games with everyone who came in.

The 28th, was back to the city and back to work... Oh, and pick up Ashley from the airport! She's home from mexico! Nothing like a flight that is supposed to get in at 9 and doesn't land until 10:30pm. Great fun. Especially when I have to open at 6 am the next morning! ick! oh well. Thankfully J came to the airport to get me so I could bring Ashley's car to her. Save her an extra hour or two of driving time.

and thats about it...
