Two events of note (other than xmas) was seeing son-in-law Raymond
in his first jiu jitsu tournament. And
our 38th anniversary (19DEC) dinner at Heritage restaurant in Woodinville –
highly recommend the pate, & the key lime pie in a jar.
Sunday AM, 22DEC, we catch the Kingston ferry for xmas at
Rebecca, Raymond, Jaxson & Mason’s in east Bremerton. After unpacking we start making Grinch
cookies for the evening’s Grinch party organized by Mason. Rebecca makes excellent stew for dinner; &
after dinner was Grinch drink & Grinch cookies. Rest of the evening was spent w/all the
Pitres playing video games (including classic Mario Bros Kart?).
Monday we take Jaxson & Mason shopping for new bikes,
followed by lunch at Mod Pizza, early evening off to Jui Jitsui practice, then
more Mario game competition. Tuesday not
much done, building gingerbread houses & just counting down the hours to
bed time so Santa can do his job.
Wednesday, 25DEC xmas, Rebecca’s traditional French toast for
breakfast. Then opening of way too many
gifts; grandkids hop from one gift/game to another, to another. Later Rebecca & Oma work on dinner (prime
rib roast – very good); then everybody but grandkids veg-out for the rest of
evening.
Thursday not much done, other than kids playing w/all their new
gifts; Corrie even joins in playing Mario Bros; Rebecca has to go back to work
in afternoon until 11PM. Friday AM,
27DEC, we head to the ferry & back to our house to rest & recover.
Tuesday, new year’s eve, we once again show our age & follow
our end of year celebration snack’ies for dinner (smoked salmon, charcuterie,
cheeses, chips & dips, wings, jalapeno poppers); & then early to bed hoping
the neighborhood fireworks don’t set the dogs offL
