Dad is 70! I put some finishing touches on the cake.

Dad’s cake, finished!

We ate at P.F. Chang’s and then had cake at Dad’s house after.

Jeaux and I invited Dad and Connie over for Christmas Eve dinner! We made white bean pot pies, homemade dinner rolls, vegan scalloped potatoes, green bean casserole, whipped cauliflower, and homemade gravy. We had a gift exchange after dinner. And then there was a gingerbread roll and five kinds of homemade cookies!

We stayed over in Sarasota at my dad’s house after our mom’s viewing and had some yummy food at a restaurant (Ash was overwhelmed by a waffle!) and then they spent some time swimming and we even got to play Cards Against Humanity (family edition).

But we had a good time out on the water, playing around and enjoying the air!

I got to go see my dad and Connie for our holiday gathering 2018. I rode along with Patricia, Yusuke, and Ash, and we met Lindsay and Mike there. Much fun was had!

My salad: not that adventurous.

Mike’s good with that ice cream.

Our grandmother passed away and we went to her funeral this afternoon. At least I got to see my sisters.

We even made latkes for some family togetherness time.
