…they had great sales
MERRY HAPPY!!! HAPPY MERRY!!!
Ok, so last night was the Annual Family Xmas Get Together And Gift Exchange. Lots of folks there…my mom, sis and brother in law, brother and sis in law, both my nephews (Zach & Chris), my niece Molly and her husband and a bunch of other people. There was, as is the Cross family tradition, enough food to feed a small African nation for a year. Everyone ate until we were very near critical mass.
There was beer and other libations, too, and I partook lustily of the Samuel Adams Lager. How nice it is to have a teetotaler for a wife:)
At the gift exchange, I gave my nephew Chris a $25.00 (the price limit for gifts this year) gift card for Best Buy. Molly (whose house this shindig was held at) gave me three bandanas, a box of chocolates and a box of sausages/crackers/mustards. Yum Yum!
All in all, a good time was had. Then Grace and I came home and slept long and late (for us). Today will be all about watching movies and the U.S. vs Norway curling match from Sunday.
More blogging, including a Violet entry, soon.
How does one come by international curling matches in these parts? Is it a TiVo + Cable trick, or are they available in download form?
Actually, it was on NBC’s Sunday Sports show. Probably because it was held at the ice rink at Rockefeller Center.
The United States won 7-2
Merry Christmas to you, too!
