Merry Christmas

a belated merry christmas to you all. i hope anyone reading this is having a good christmas season!
i am still really enjoying being home in england but i have to admit that i am missing vancouver quite a lot.
my last few days have actually been pretty hectic but relaxing at the same time if that makes any sense!
christmas eve was spent with my dad and lesley and my extended family in manchester. we had a really enjoyable day...eating lots of yummy food, watching the kids go crazy as well as trying to watch the garfield movie in the midst of the chaos...it was quite good actually, a little silly but good none the less!!
christmas day was great as usual...my mum and i went to church christmas morning which we have done ever since i can remember and i absolutely love it. then we went round to some really good friends of ours for coffee and mince pies/biscuits and exchanged gifts. and then we went round to my uncle dave and auntie barbaras for christmas dinner. there were 9 of us altogether and it was just an absolute blast! i was in total stitches all afternoon! i think this year was the best christmas dinner we have had. i cant put my finger on exactly why but it was just amazing. of course we ended the meal with good old home made christmas pud...we got to the point that we werent sure if the flames were ever going to go out there was so much brandy in it!!! it sure tasted great though!!!
boxing day was extremely restful...i spent most of the day sleeping due to a bad cold i had picked up. liverpool beat newcastle 2-0 which is a definate highlight! welcome back to anfield michael!
so that just about sums up my last few days...so until next time...
