Every other year Niki and I go to Victoria for Christmas. We love it. There are lots of puppy walks, good food, drinks, games and visiting with friends and family. It seems a few people decided to have a baby in the last year, so there are also a lot of baby pictures. I was finally able to meet one of my oldest and best friends new son, Niko. The little guy is adorable, and very healthy. Niki and I also found our own version of a baby, we are getting a puppy. His name is Bunsen, and he's a buff American Cocker Spaniel. I'm going back to Victoria on Jan 13 to bring him home. He was a little too young when we saw him to be taken away. His sister is going to Niki's sister Lindsay, and her name is Pippin. We're all very excited. As is tradition, we spent New Years in Campbell River with some very very good friends, the Lanyon family. We played a new to me game on New Year's Eve called Cards Against Humanity. The rules are very similar to Apples to Apples, but it is not for the easily offended. I will recommend it though, as I don't think I've laughed that hard in a long time.
I didn't want to do a long entry, but just wanted to share our pictures from the holidays and say that while I didn't get to see everyone I would have liked, we had a perfect Christmas, miss everyone we saw, and love you all.
Cheers,
Scott
