Hey all my people! New blog post about my Christmas and New Year. Some awesome photos some funny stories so lets do it.
Christmas always is filled with the good stuff, people and food. My favourite part about the holiday time is spending time with my family and my girlfriends Sarah and unwrapping the presents. And most important having some awesome food. Cant forget about play games with my family also. I am the best at all the games in all the world. Next year family you might be able to beat me if you keep practicing all year long.
Christmas is just filled with doing all the fun things with all the fun people in your life. I went bowling with my family and girlfriend. We played some cards against humanity (always gets weird fast which means funny fast). We went in the hot tub and jammed out to Keith Urban tunes, sining loudly in the hot tub is always a good time. Decorating the tree this year was me and my dad. Didnt break any of the ordainments so didnt ruin Christmas (phew). We also did some puzzling. We take the art of puzzling very seriously. It takes years of hard work and dedication to be able to master the puzzling technique. Me and my cousins went on a sleigh ride through candy cane lane to check out some pretty houses and lights. I also had a hair cut on Christmas day, very important to look your best with a fresh cut on Christmas.
Christmas dinner looks like this… we set up the table all fancy with candles and crackers (the things you pop open not the things you put cheese on). We then all sit around the table and open our crackers. Next put on those ridiculous hats on our heads. Why are they so cool and so not cool at the same time? We then read the jokes that come out of the crackers. Some of them are really funny some of them are not funny at all. Next up we all hold hands and say what we are thankful for. Best part next… we EAT and eat and eat. Its always awesome food like turkey, ham, cheese potatoes. And for dessert cheesecake, ice cream, and my moms world famous chocolate turtles.
Christmas is special to me because it reminds me of the good times growing up when me and Dylan were kids. Me and my bro would make snow angels. I miss having him around for Christmas. Last year he was in town but this year I really missed him. I miss being a kid during Christmas time. Everything seemed so much better and festive as a kid. I miss snow fights and snow forts. Being around the tree with my family is pretty special to me, even still as an adult. Just lots of nostalgia this year for when things were when I was young.
The best part about being an adult during Christmas time is… work parties. Rowdy times. For the Sagiper office Christmas party we went to Amore Cafe for supper. I had pasta with chicken then I had ice cream and had lots of diet coke (shots shots shots). My bearded brother Adam was away in Portugal and so I missed him and was glad he was back in time to party at the Christmas party with me. He made it home just in time. I liked being there with all my amazing co workers just chatting and hanging out. Cant say much more because what happens at the Christmas party stays at the Christmas party. Whats better than one work party? MANY! For my other job at Leading Edge we all went to central social hall for supper. There was live comedy acts and then went out for some shots and drinks. I had to cut the party short that night because I had to work my third job the next more at the deep freeze festival and be up at 5am ( it was a cold early morning). So the rowdy night had to end early.
We take puzzle and lego very seriously
Lots going on in this picture…
Are couples Christmas card photo for next year
NEW YEAR 2020 Baby
A new years goal I set myself towards is going to the gym more to stay fit and build muscles. Its a classic goal but its a good one. I celebrated the new year by going out for supper then went to the Oilers vs Rangers game. I went with my family and my girlfriend Sarah and her family.
Some highlights of 2019 were my trip to Maui, lots of music concerts, hockey games but my biggest highlight was getting a full time job at Sagiper (blog about that to come- promoting my own blog on my own blog). I love my job at Sagiper so much.
A low light of 2019 was that the Oilers didnt make the playoffs. This year though! I can smell a play off win and then onto winning the cup.
Four things I am excited about in 2020 are…
Spending time with my brother in Hawaii
Oilers making the playoffs
New music to download
Spending time at the Cabin
My cousin Nicoles wedding in Mexico
