Celebrations

It's a week long celebration of the holidays for me - first, Christmas followed by my birthday and finally New Year's.  Last night, 14 members of my family and I went out to celebrate my birthday.  Talk about anxiety producing! I always feel bad for the waitress who has to deal with a huge group like that but surprisingly everything was pretty low-keyed and the service was awesome.  All the nieces and nephews were soooo good and thank god for my new IPhone - little 2 year old Grace was occupied by You Tube videos of Elmo and Bert and Ernie throughout dinner. 

So the celebration continues tonight.  Connie, my partner in crime, and I will be heading out for dinner and possibly a movie.  And Thursday - more celebrations.  I'm going to need a day to recover from all my gatherings.  Happy Holidays indeed.  :)
