OK well i havent really updated in a while besides w/ those useless quiz things..soooo..
Christmas Eve!
I wake up and get my butt over to Aunt Michele & Uncle Mike's house b/c Grandma Fran is suppossed to come over for our once a year visit (joy)..so while we wait for her Mom, Aunt Michele and I get together the pies and Cookie Tray (thanx very much..i made it it was quite pretty i must say!!)..uncle mike and dave take some presents to our house for Xmas Day...then Grandma gets there w/ freaking PINK hair..she is like 72 or something! now mind u..she's a little of her rocker..apparently it was supposed to b strawberry blonde or something..well..it wasnt..so she comes in w/ a mink coat on..yeah idk..and we visit..and my uncle keeps freakin talking...and we need to get ready for later..and stuff..so she isnt leaving..well we opened presents..she actually picked out a pretty cute outfit..im happy...my dad gets there and goes "your favorite son in law is here" and she f*ing rolled her eyes..it was sad but funny how everyone bolted out of the kitchen and was like hi jay hi dad lalala..no one ever does that..he looked a bit shocked...well finally she leaves...and we start on the antipasto trays..fabulous looking specially the roasted pepper, pepperoncini and olive tray..it was a work of art i tell u..then i go home and shower and we snuck into the 3pm mass instead of the 4:30 mass..now St. Joe's has tickets but see its not like they collect them..EVER...its just kind of a way to pretty much gauge how much over the fire code they are going to be lol..idk..so then go home finish getting ready...paint my nails..mom and dad make the mashed potatoes and steamed clams (yuck!)..and we head to Aunt Micheles...
Well here is who all was there:
The Lockes (Mom, Dad, Me, Dave, Gramma, Barry, Aunt Alice, Uncle Glen)
The Ippolitos (Aunt Michele, Uncle Mike, Sam (uncle mikes dad), Marlene (uncle mikes mom), karen and bob (uncle mikes aunt and uncle))
Mr Panaggio (aka Poppa..debby was in Chicago..to return xmas day)
The Bartells (Caroline Francine hehe (Carol) and Doug)
The Malleys (Greg, Shawn, Alicia, Elayna and Phillip..my freakin awesome 2nd cousins)
So..Greg and family are not there..so my aunt is like omgomgomgomg...and so we end up eating cuz stuff is getting cold..well around 7:30 Greg strolls in..now previous to his entrance it was calm and peaceful.he arrives and its loud and boisterous.."I'm here"..well apparently my aunt told greg to b there at 6:30..and he said she didnt need to call shawn and tell her..so my aunt didnt..so greg remembered the shrimp but told shawn anytime after 7..well the girlies were all mad that greg made them late..and as he sits down he goes "now that i think of it she did say 6:30 didnt she??"...so everyone resumes to eating..when suddenly greg turns to me and goes "sophomore rite?" i was like "yeah" and he is like "got a boyfriend" i was like "um no" and he is like "y not?" i was like "*shoulder shrug*" and poppa goes "sam is just fine she doesnt need any boyfriend..." and my dad goes "yeah we dont need to add another goof to the family" ahhh i got up and got another coke..
