ANOTHER LATE BLOG BUT OH WELL, ENJOY.

CHRISTMAS 2008 STARTED WHEN GRAMZ RALLIED HER GRANDS TO VISIT PAPA G'S RESTING PLACE

SOME OF GRAMZ KIDS WERE THERE TOO

THEN IT WAS OFF TO ERIN'S FAMILY'S FOR SOME GIFT SHARING

& THERE WAS ALSO A FLOUR-COVERED-MARSHMALLOW WAR

INSANE...ERIN'S GRANDPA PLAYED TOO

ERIN'S NEPHEW WAS GATHERING HIS AMMUNITION

THEN IT WAS OFF TO MITCH & RUDY'S PLACE FOR MY FAMILY'S SECRET SANTA EXCHANGE. DEREK MADE IT OUT AGAIN FOR ANOTHER HOLIDAY SURPRISE

NIKKI LOVED HER CPK GIFTCARD FROM HER SECRET SANTA

TAEYA GOT A TEE FROM HER SECRET SANTA

MITCH GOT A JAMBA JUICE GIFT CARD & PROACTIVE FACEWASH FROM HER SECRET SANTA

RIA GOT A BOOBIE-COVERING DEVICE FOR WHEN SHE FEEDS HER BOOBIES AFTER SHE BIRTHS OUT HER BABY NEXT MONTH

MY SECRET SANTA WAS A PART-TIME COMEDIAN. HE GOT ME A PICTURE OF A JONAS BROTHER SIGNED "CASEY, MY #1 FAN..." ON THE FRONT & THE BACK HAD $25 ATTACHED W/ NOTE SIGNED "...THANKS FOR LAST NIGHT." CLASSIC. HAD EVERYONE LAUGHING AT ME THINKING I REALLY LIKE THE JONAS BROTHERS. THANKS MOI

 

EVERYONE CHIPPED IN & GOT GRAMZ TICKETS TO MAMA MIA WHEN THEY COME OUT TO THE BLAISDELL IN THE SUMMER

LISTENED TO THE RADIO & HEARD HOW THE WHOLE ISLAND WAS FREAKING OUT LIKE IT WAS THE END OF THE WORLD. ONLY WE WERE CALM B/C IN GUAM WE'D GO W/O ELECTRICITY FOR DAYS...SOMETIMES WEEKS

THE KIDS WERE KINDA SCARED & BORED THOUGH

I GOT MY MOMMY TO MAKE HER FAMOUS FINADENE' THAT I'VE BEEN CRAVING FOR YEARS

FOR THOSE WHO DONT KNOW, IT'S A DIPPING SAUCE FOR MEAT, CHICKEN, FISH, RICE, PRETTY MUCH EVERYTHING. SHOYU + ONIONS + LEMON + PEPPER + TOMATOES + OTHER GOOD STUFF = YUM

AFTER A WHILE THE KIDS WERE BROUGHT TO LIFE DOING THE "CHACHA SLIDE," "ELECTRIC SLIDE," & "CUPID SHUFFLE" FROM ITUNES VIA SOMEONE'S LAPTOP
