Christmas Happened!
December 31, 2015
Christmas! Here are 10 things about that:
- Rather than do battle with I-95, we took the train to Baltimore. I even sprang for business class! That car was practically empty, so we had our choice of seats far from the proletariat. We also got free coffee - bonus! This ride was a great present to ourselves; arriving rested and happy beats arriving stressed out and grouchy every time. We even took a cab to 30th Street Station.
- SonnyeBoy picked us up at the station, then we headed to my sister's Christmas Eve party. It was wonderful!
- My little grand-nephews are so cute! We even have a new one, Evan, who was born in August (I think).
- I took no pictures of anything. Amazing!
- We spent the night at my niece's condo, which was great. We could see her dad's handiwork in the bathroom and the kitchen.
- SonnyeBoy drove us back to PA. It was a smooth, swift ride, whee!
- Once we got home, we had presents! I love all of mine, but the Kitchen Aid mixer was a complete and glorious surprise. Also, SonnyeBoy gave me a Maryland School of Law hoodie. It is perfect!
- We had dinner at a Chinese restaurant. The food was absolutely delicious, but we waited for it for over an hour. I think it's because we were exiled in the "Stupid People with No Reservation" section.
- Do I have the only cats in the universe who don't like empty boxes?
- Best. Christmas. Ever.
