Breakfast was superb with Linda's eggs benedict, Elias did much of the cooking of the eggs and bacon and sausage, as well as many other goodies. I went and picked fresh lemons and squeezed them while Berlinda made the lemonade.
We all had lots of food and fun. Missed the Tuitele's in Oahu for their family Christmas. Megs went to a friend's home 6 hours away by car from Houston. We talked with her by phone. Loved to hear her voice and know she is enjoying herself. Jason was at the McKenzie's in Utah with the McDonnell's clan enjoying himself and with us over the internet. It's great to have Jeff home from Europe for now and looks like the kids all enjoyed Uncle Jeff. We missed Michael and Jamie, Chazzyboy and Ammon. I'm sure they were at the Watanabe's having a good time in Kaneohe. WE really don't need to invite others, our family is a crowd within itself, even if we are missing some of them. Mele Kalikimaka to all. Aloha Pops
