Christmas Party

I’m a little late but I wanted to share some of our family Christmas experience. Except for Clark’s family everone was able to be here. Chance brought his girl friend Kristen. We had a nice pizza dinner at the local Hot Stone Pizza restaurant. Afterwards, we went to the Crocketts house where there was all kinds of goodies. We opened presents. The grandkids had a really good time and no one seemed to be disappointed in their gifts. Actually they were very appreciative. We also exchanged “white elephant” gifts. Of course I got the electronic “whoopie cushion”. Then we engaged in the annual karaoke tradition. As has become the custom, Daniel was the star performer. Melissa is challenging his position but has a way to go.

Our day was made even more special since it was Blake’s 8th birthday.

Happy Birthdday Blake

Today is Blake’s 8th birthday. We got a start celebrating yesterday when we when to Blake’s school and had lunch with him. Tanya made cupcakes for his class and we sang happy birthday to Blake. Later that afternoon, Blake’s class had a special Christmas program. Blake had a speaking part and did a great job. He is a neat and funny kid. He lights up the room when he comes around.

He reminds me of Dash from the Incredibles. Blake is really fast.

Last evening was Meredith ‘s acting debut. She starred as Curly, a sheep, in the children’s Christmas performance at First Alliance Church. She was very nervous about her part but she did a great job. Meredith is a wonderful granddaughter and I am proud to be her Papa.
