A different Christmas...

Our Christmas celebration turned out different than we had planned. It all started out good with us picking up my dad and going over to Kellys. Bixby was not feeling so good but managed to open gifts....a good time...and we managed  a cup of coffee and a bit of lunch...

 Notice the wrapped bucket shaped gift

under the tree...It ended up saving the day

Nana had to play Santa 

as Bixby snuggled on the couch 

He managed to pose in his

new head gear and shirt 

Before he said"My tummy hurts..

I need a bucket " and then threw up.....

 We decided to leave

to protect ourselves from the germs.

Kelly and Bixby enjoyed  a quiet 

afternoon snuggled up watching movies,

At home, Mike and I continued to have fun

 chatting with our son and his family in Ohio.

We exchanged pictures of the day.

 Cameron with his new wok...

big enough for his family of 6.

 Arlo and Jack with their step sisters

Aislinn and Dani.

 The girls loved their unicorn snugglies

and the boys their cool hoodies

 Mike and I ended the evening with our usual 

games of Skip Bo.

And I got to have a whole mince pie to myself...

Oh wait a minute....

no one else likes Mince pie anyway. !!! Yumm...

Not the Christmas day we planned, but good just the same. 

And to all a good night.
