my day just got better and better despite all the setbacks.
work was work with christmas trading. thank goodness i didnt have to stay back eventhough DM was visiting.. i was kinda disappointed at first (time and half and all) but turned out to be a very good decision.
ppl started arriving at around 4ish.. which was also the same time it decided to start to rain.. but still, heaps of fun we had.
we played wii olympics.. LOL omg.. tat was so FUNNY.
and godbrother was here too.. and all my relos are like.. aw.. and HAHAHAHAHA funny (and not so funny) things that happened:
- justin was pinched and he has a scab now from ari
- ari fell for all of justins pranks
- ari vomited after all my uncles (i mean, my two uncles with married kids who are desperate for grandkids *hint hint*) fed him cake (ROFL ROFL)
- coz in law andrew asked if ari was "hire-able" (ROFL ROFL ROFL, the reply was "yeah, ill give u a discount, $100 per hr" andrew: "wait a minute... shouldnt YOU be paying ME?" *everyone ROFLs* HAHAHA)
- ari fell down the stairs (it was just 2 steps and was all happy 2 mins later)
- we had heaps and heaps of cake!!!
- everybody who came brought a botle of red wine (mum was like wtf? and dad was like yep, its a entry requirement)
- bottle of vintage 1992 grange was opened (the cost of the bottle of wine was in excess of $600. no joke.. and it was NICE)
- for some reason, we kept getting international phone calls from relos (these were independent events)
- we all ate too much and theres too much left over even though everyone doggy bagged
- fireworks at the oval was cancelled (boo...)
- andy was sending me stuff and my phone died on me AGAIN (I WAS AND STILL AM V PISSED OFF)
- justin made a comment 'wats wrong with all the phones u own?' (grr..)
i have to say, eventhough it wasnt a complete, every person present, kind of gathering, it was one of the most happy and satisfying ones i've had in a long long time. makes u all warm and fuzzy inside (awwww...) even took a few random pics. mostly of my cakes. my gingerbread house is still alive eventhough more than one person wanted to chop it up!! =D can't wait for the new year one =) i love my family
im all peachy yet pissed off atm.
