Christmas 2008 continued
















After opening gifts, we headed home for a nap. Then we headed back to my parents' place for Christmas dinner. The usual suspects were there: Grandma, Lana and Don, Lori and Matt, Auntie Helen, Uncle Tom, Bob, my family, Auntie Joyce, Uncle Walter, George and all the way from Chicago...Darryl and his wife Elisa. After a dinner which included eating a brined turkey...yes, a turkey which was first soaked in apple juice (I hear it was delicious, but being a vegetarian, I just took everyone's word for it :)) and the usual fixings, Shawn set up the Wii and we played a party game called "Ravin' Rabbids" It was absolutely hilarious! Shawn and Tracy started playing this party dancing game, then Vanessa and Richard joined in. To get points you had to mimic the dance moves on the TV screen. Songs which you danced to included "Wake me up before you go - go" by Wham and "ABC" by the Jackson 5. Moves included waving your hands in the air over your head, punching side-to-side, to slapping your butt, etc. They must have given everyone driving by quite the show.
