Well this year we spent Christmas with Mike's family in Ida, Louisiana. This was their beautiful Victorian themed Christmas tree. It also had little lights that were white but glowed a pale blue.
We totally surprised Mike's mom, Sherry. She was convinced that Mike and I were not going to be able to make it this year and was she shocked when she saw us arrive right behind Cynthia and Tony. We showered her with gifts because this Christmas was all about making her happy. Although she kept telling us that we ambushed her, she was very thankful and joyful.
Greg (Mike's brother)was really enjoying the opening of presents and being surrounded by family.John (Greg's partner)was our gracious host and camcorder operator. He made sure to capture all of the tender as well as hilarious moments during the White Elephant Christmas we participated in this year.
Tony and Cynthia (Mike's sister) drove in from Florida to join in the family Christmas. They also brought their babies Jasper and Sasha (2-Schnauzers). Cynthia also shared with us the wonderful news that she is 3 months pregnant and is due in July, 2008.
Stephanie (Greg and John's daughter)finally realized that Santa came by and left presents for everyone. She was busy opening the 1st one.
Mike and I just lounged after opening our gifts.
