Belated Christmas celebration with Gord's family

Gord and I, along with his son, Ken, were supposed to celebrate Christmas with Gord's family one weekend in December ... his family live about a 2.5 hour drive NE of us, north of Belleville.  But there was a snowstorm that weekend and we didn't go.

Gord and I drove there today (Ken couldn't make it).  Everyone gathered at Judy and Doug's (Gord's sister and her husband) and that's where Gord and I spent the night (we'll drive home tomorrow).  Minnie (Gord and Judy's mom) and Keith (their step-dad) were there ... they don't live too far from Judy and Doug.  Judy and Doug's son, Kyle, and his wife, Kerri, and their kids, Madison and Colton, live just the road from Judy and Doug and were there too.

Supper was delicious and there was lots to choose from ... ham, venison, scalloped potatoes, corn, pickles, cheese, rolls and homemade pies (lemon meringue, which is my favourite, and blueberry).

Judy and Doug love animals and have three dogs (Andy, Sheba and Jake) and a cat (Chelsea).

Keith and Madison (great grandfather and great granddaughter) watching TV
Gord showed Minnie, his mom, our vacation pictures
Colton, who is just 2.5 years old, knows how to use an ipad!
Andy was giving Judy a hint that she was sitting in his spot
Doug and Jake
Judy moved and Jake quickly took her spot on the couch
He got too comfy!
Kerri had fun with her son, Colton
Judy, Keith, Minnie and Gord
I moved and Jake quickly took my spot!
This chair was free and Andy grabbed it!
Kyle grabbed the chair when it was free and Colton, his son, snuggled in
Judy and Colton, grandmother and grandson

Kyle still has his chair and his daughter, Madison, moved in with the ipad
Now Kyle has both his kids, Colton and Madison, snuggled in

As always, it was great to see everyone and catch up!

Merry (belated) Christmas!
