A busy day for us it seems. Barb, Garth and Garth's mom, Vi Roden,came for a morning cup of Joe at 9.30. We had a very nice visit and catchup before they headed up the Valley to get a fresh turkey. [Garth is a very good chef].
Then we were off to the Canada Ticket Luncheon, our 36th, which is a casual and corny affair but it is our tradition and it sets the scene for the Christmas shut down which this year is just about perfect regarding the weekend, Christmas Eve, and Boxing Day.
Back home soon enough where I had some business to attend to so we missed the after lunch quiet time. Mid afternoon Jeanette dropped over with Adrienne and we had a very relaxed couple of hours of quality time. Then Fellette prepared a meal of left over Chinese, which is often better than the original meal!
After dinner we dropped over to a neighbour's house for a cup of Christmas Cheer before hitting the sack and calling it a day. Long day for me, and Fellette. Good day though.

Oh yes, somewhere in the afternoon, DHL, the courier people came by and took some of our luggage away, never to be seen again! [Joking]
The 120 year old restored printing press in the reception area at CTI,
decorated for Christmas by Katrina.
The tree.
A 'Very American' Christmas Decoration from one of the staff at Globe in Chicago. Apparently we have been sending toques and all things Canadian down to them!
Earlier in the week, going through the closet picking clothes for the cruise.
Some of Doug's stuff.
More of mine?
I photographed the 'sent luggage' for identification purposes if it gets lost.
Ditto.
