I had a very nice Christmas celebration with the family. We went to Christmas Eve Mass at a full St. Gerard, then dad, mom and I came back to the house for some gumbo with Uncle Ricky and his three girls, Kaitlyn, Mary Grace and Ricky Jo. It was nice and low key, but I did miss the visit Santa made at Nanny and Uncle Be's. Hopefully next year I can be there.
Christmas morning we all went to Jacob and Charmin's for the day. Jacob and I constructed JP's new train table, and then JP played with it until he could barely stand up for being so tired. We opened gifts and played board games with Lisa and Brandon and even a couple of Lisa's friends. I fell asleep watching Star Trek, and considering how action-packed that movie is, I must have been really tired.
On the day after Christmas, the whole family went to the funeral of Freddie Housewright's mother. She lived a long, full life, but funerals are always sad. I've been to too many of them this year. It was great to see Uncle Freddie and Aunt Linda and Alison and Brian and their families. Saturday evening we had the Breaux Bridge Couvillions and the Atlanta Couvillions over to mom and dad's house. We all had a nice visit.
Sunday we lazed around and watched the Saints and Colts lose. Cara and I decided to go see Sherlock Holmes. It was definitely re-imagined, but it was very good.
Who knows what today will bring . . . .
