christmas party with unity

last week matts work had their christmas party at a resturaunt in yuba city. we played the white elephant game and ended up with a very skimpy red feathery nighty..... to bad it is the wrong size, just kidding. it was quite the surprise as matt was pulling it out of the box, his eyes got really big and i am sure my face was bright red. we will wrap it up and bring it to the party next year for someone else to enjoy ! :0)

these pictures are of ryan and crystal, kelly and kyle, cecil and matt, and matt and i at the corner bar after the party just hanging out. thanks ryan for planning the unity party this year, it turned out great. way to get into the christmas spirit! we look forward to next years party! and beware of the red nighty that may pop out of the box :)

merry christmas!

well today matt and i went to see my grandma del today in grass valley. we had lunch with her and gave her her christmas gift. she really liked it. she always makes us spaghetti and it is really good. we got to visit with her for a couple hours and listen to her great stories. she is going to be 94 in january and she has seen and been through so much in her lifetime. everytime i visit with her i learn something new about our family. I just love listening to her, we had a great day.
well i hope everyone is ready fro christmas to be here. i am done with shopping and all the gifts are wrapped and under the tree, wohoo!! hope every one has a great christmas and a safe new year. MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Christmas Party with our Friends

Well we had our Christmas Party this weekend hosted by Jen and Mike. Every year we have a christmas party with our good friends the Kirkpatricks, The Eddys, and the Mendozas. We take turns whose house it is at every year and jen and mike had it this year in their beautiful new house in rocklin it was perfect. There was a lot of people there, even a few that I haven't seen since high school. It was crazy to see them after all this time. We had a fantastic dinner, which matt said was the perfect amount of food. it was so fun to be with all our best friends in one house. I look forward to it every year!! We played christmas games ( in between the guys watching boxing and UFC matchs ...). Thanks for having such a great party Jen. I also got my baby fix with all the cute kids there. Even the newest additions, Raina and Alyssa. I can't wait till next years party:) Andra and Greg you are next!
