For Christmas Eve Harry and I went to my cousin Renee's house up in Hidden Hills. The day started in an hour drive totally in the opposite direction to pick up my Dad. Then back to our place to drop off the dog and then fifteen minutes to my cousin’s place. It was a lot of fun. We have only known these people for a short amount of time but they have taken us into their family and their hearts like we have been a part of them forever. Renee made a wonderful dinner and we sat around and talked and played games before opening gifts. We had to leave early because we still had to drive Dad back home. Harry and I normally open our gifts for each other on Christmas Eve but when we got home it was past midnight so typically we opened our gifts on Christmas morning. We had a good time opening gifts that we knew about and some that we had no idea about. All in all a great night of joy and laughter with family.
