Family Gatherings

Over the holidays we were blessed to spend time with extended family. This included a large gathering of my side of the family for a Christmas celebration on Dec 30. Thank goodness we rented the Senior's Centre as there was 33 of us. With only a few kids in tears from time to time, two who were sick to their stomach, and lots of laughter...a great time was had by all.

The following day brought us together with a few members of B's extended family including a much overdue visit with Great Grampa A. It was a lovely luncheon with only a few glitches. W managed to manhandle a cactus and had a hand full of stickers as a war wound. This was before he bonked poor Great Grampa A in the noggin with the cane. Our little shepard was a bit over zealous! Regardless, Great Grampa A was quite pleased with W and happy to have his family visit. (We'll return once W has better stick handling control with a cane!)
