The next day a bunch of relatives came to our house for Christmas dinner. Clockwise from bottom left: Grandpa, Grandma, Uncle Wayne, mom, Aunt Elaine, Amy and Brett. Meredith and I = TOTALLY CROPPED OUT! Thanks, dad! Haha.
I got up to help him out and was told that he didn't need any help "figuring out his own camera, Goddamnit!" So I took some photos of everyone waiting. Hahah.
Uncle Wayne broke all his own holiday records by managing to fall asleep
before the meal! (Caption taken from Meredith's
recap of this very same day that she posted almost a year ago when this shit actually
happened. Nice one, babe.) In order to top himself next year, he's
actually going to have to fall asleep at the wheel while driving over.
For Mother's Day I hopped the Linden EnJay Transit train to meet up with my parents at G-ma and G-pa's house. Happy Mother's Day! (PS - Sarah was so right on the money when she pointed out that my dad looks like Peter Griffin from the Family guy).
Not wanting to spend Easter alone in NYC, I hopped on a train and headed 20 minutes away to Clark, NJ to have Easter dinner with my grandparents and my cousins, the Carricks. Here's my Uncle Wayne and Grandma working on the bird.
On Christmas Day it was snowing like crazy! We piled in the car and risked life and limb (literally!) to drive 45 minutes to Clark, NJ to eat Xmas dinner with my Grandparents and one of my mom's sisters and her family.
