I’m still working on getting all the pics into my gallery, but in the meantime, I proudly present the very quick-and-dirty “Christmas with My Family” montage… (click any photo for a larger version)
I arrived home on the chilly evening of December 24. Mom was so happy to see me that she stuck her head in the wreath. Once inside, I discovered that all of my cool light-up and sound-producing space ornaments have been relegated to a small fake tree in the kitchen in an attempt to keep the lights on the big tree from going out. Booooooooo.
The big tree was still very pretty though.
Katie immediately settled in on the couch to watch the second half of the GT bowl game and of course I joined her. Tech may have gone to a crappy bowl game, but we certainly kicked Syracuse’s booty. HA!
Christmas came with presents galore. Grandmother was visiting as always. David got a cool DDay poster that Katie brought back from Europe and Mom had it framed as a gift. I happily unwrapped a Night Sky Monopoly game. Then David and I went outside to test his new GPS and it was really freaking cold but I was too lazy to go get my jacket, so I wrapped myself in the blanket Katie gave me.
On the 26th we drove up to Chapel Hill for lunch with my Aunt Nancy and cousin Casey. While there, David avoided the camera, Katie tried to make Brian wear a pink crown from his Christmas cracker, and Mom happily wore her yellow crown. Brian later looked pensive watching the Panthers on TV.
On the 30th, Mom and Dad and I went to the UNC-Boston College bowl game at Bank of America stadium. Mom and I posed nicely, then Dad and I posed with thumbs down as Boston College collected its bowl trophy in the background.
The End.
