Well, thank goodness all that's over! It was a very busy holiday season. I can't believe I'm actually looking forward to New Year's Eve so I can stay in and relax for a change!
Christmas Eve, we rode out to Long Island (the ass-end of Long Island, it turns out) to spend the holiday with Frank's aunt and cousin. We had traditional Italian fish dinner on Christmas Eve, then baked ziti on Christmas. Delicious! Frank was upset that as soon as I met their dog, Pugsley, I threw Sam aside for him. Sorry, but Sam's a spaz, and RoseAnn hasn't been able to get that puppy under control quite yet. I'm sure someday Sam will be a treat, but right now, I'd much rather spend time with Pugsly, who knows how to behave.
Saturday we took the bus to Boonton to spend the day with my side of the family. Santa had already brought Gabi a ton of great presents, but she wasn't about to turn down a bunch more. Especially when the duck sponge I gave her with some crayons turned out to be just what she needed Who knew? Amy outdid herself as usual with the food, and despite her insistence that the seafood lasagna should've been hotter, it was still delicious. Unfortunately, Frank forgot his bag, so just as we were getting on the bus to go back to the city, we had to get back off and have Dad come bring us back to the house where we could get his bag and wait for the next bus. Sigh. Still, it was a great Christmas, and there are a ton of pictures like this one on my Flickr page. Check 'em out!
