Gee's Christmas Party

On Sunday, we had Christmas with Grammy Nancee, aka "Gee". Randi came up with that name all on her own when she was a year old, and it's just stuck. Ryan now calls her "Gee Gee". Uncle Rusty let all of us invade his beautiful new home, and we had a wonderful time eating a yummy meal, doing performances, opening presents, and having a giant slumber party. Thank goodness he has enough rooms for all of us! Some of you may be wondering what I meant by performances? Well, it's a tradition in the Kirk family that you have to do a performance of some sort before you can open your presents. They start with the youngest and go to the oldest and everyone does something different. This year, Ryan blew his train whistle and said "all aboard", and Randi had a sack with a surprise in it. Everyone had to guess what it was based upon her clues. 1. It's a girl 2. She has horns 3. She lives at the North Pole? Any guesses? It's Clarice....Rudolph's girlfriend! Later Michael, Nancee, the kids and I also sang a song. Nancee played for us and Randi was sure to tell us that she wanted to play her guitar too. We didn't sound too good, but it's the attempt that counts right!
