Christmas at Grandmas, always a grand time.

Every year on Christmas Eve, the whole family gets together up at my grandmas house. There is lots of good food, drinks, and I am pretty much the life of the party (as always - just kidding). All the family comes in from all across the US and we pretty much eat, take pictures, drink, and open a shit ton of presents! My mothing got another shot glass....how appropriate.

This is the family picture of my cousin Bridgey and Aunt Janis.

Here is Ash sitting with Grandma.

My brother trying to tend bar. He fed one of my cousins so much schnapps that he fell out of the truck and then puked his guts out. Bad bartender Richie.

Bill made it to the festivities.

My brother sort of looks like a Beatle with that long hair.

They were supposed to take a nice picture, and then Matilda smacked Dakota in the face; I got the evidence - evil little child!

Cousin Joe hates pictures, but Ash wants a good one.

Little Jakey loved Bill!

Christmas would not be Christmas without me trying to do something crazy to Kitten. Man he loves me! Just look at his face!

Here is Jenny's family shot: Willy, Jenny, Uncle, Mike, Didi, and Monique!

This is my family photo, but I don't know why Jakey is in there with us, he must want to switch families.

Ash had to get a pic with Bill too! All the kids were all over her all night it was pretty interesting, they must not get to see her that often. Or she must be a nice person I haven't figured it out.

This is my amazing photo, view with caution.

Here are my favorite Aunt Lori and Uncle Jimmy! Who by the way gave me the coolest present ever!

That about sums up the night. The next day we went back to Grandma's for some Christmas dinner, we played monopoly I won. We played poker, I lost, and then we played again and I won $7 (we were playing with silver change). Booya!

We like to go on adventures!

We got kicked out Scoop's but he recommended that we go and play at Twin Peaks. Here are the results:

I think this picture is amazing.

rjenna thinks this view is amazing, and I agree.

And then there was a huge fire! We watched the fire trucks drive to it and everything! And they took a hella long time to reach that thing!

And we went hiking on an unmarked trail by accident.

Then we stopped in Pacifica! rjenna loves this beach because of all the surfers.

We had a peaceful time.

One guy made a rock structure. We took many pictures of it, because rjenna liked it.

Many people passed by this sacred rock and some even practiced the ancient carrying methods of old.

Ten pictures later I snapped this perfect pic of rjenna. Classic. You can't really tell, but some surfer totally just wiped out on that wave - hahaha. I was trying to get him in the picture only riding the wave, but he crashed too soon. :(

Anyway, give us some free time and a car and we will make it a day to remember always.

Good food is good food, no matter who makes it.

So, rjenna and I decided randomly that we (I) wanted to bake a lasagna. So we went and bought all the materials (produce), and I began to construct a tasty meal. Then rjenna decided that SHE wanted to make a lasagna and pushed me out of the way. Knowing that my way is always better. Here are the results.

She loves it.

It looks delicious.

I love it, but I add more to mine.

Then we take the leftovers to Scoop who REALLY likes it. He likes it so much he lets me paint his toe nails, paint it black! Booya!

Then we go out and have a blurry time and I come home and brush my teeth then pass out. What are blackouts good for if not making you drunkenly brush your teeth with a friend in a photo?

Redding Trip

I finally got to stop here and take pictures, thank you Holls. This is an old shut down (obviously) mine.

This is some cold ass water.

More mine pictures.

I made a circle rainbow on the curtain! I am adorable.

Holls made some friends and then later got the creeps from the lady on the right. She gets really paranoid all the time. I spent the night talking to the man, what can I say I have a lot in common with old men. Lame.

I have decided to not post the picture of Holls singing karaoke, which was some Taylor Swift song in which I had no idea what that was, so she was flying solo. Haha and not well I may add.

the munchies

I was just discussing this the other day with my friend Ash. We have come to the conclusion that drunk munchies are so much worse than pot munchies. here is why: when you drink and get hungry (which you always do), you don't just want a snack, you want a full blown meal, four courses at that. when you smoke and get hungry a bag of chips, a couple of cookies, or a candy bar will easily satisfy that annoying requirement for food.

One time, at two in the morning, we actually went to the garden to pick jalapenos in order to make ourselves some poppers. how insane is that? we had flashlights. we had scissors. we were drunk. we watched cartoons. we passed out. I think you get the just of the story.

what do you think? drunk vs high munchies, which is worse?

CNA Test

Well, I apparently can't "fake it to make it." I am thinking that I failed that piece of shit test, well at least the skills portion. Which is stupid because I couldn't get this guys blood pressure and possibly ended up making up a number. It is not cool because I can totally take blood pressure. I just did it perfectly yesterday. WTF universe. WTF?

We will find out in a couple days if we passed or not. Until then here are some pics of the night before.

Zeee!

A pathetic attempt at dancing to a janky little alarm radio.

Quarters!

A make-shift ice chest! Hotels are the best.

Xmas Part Won

What does Christmas and a cat at the beach have in common? (See bottom to find answer)

I am putting a star on the top of the tree.

Boo!
This is the same stocking that I have ever had. My granny made it for me. It is cute.
The finished product.
Sandy Claws. (Zing!)

Stay tuned for more xmas time fun and more lame Rachelness.

We're fucked.

So we are playing Crash 3 tonight and trying to beat some fucking levels and its hard as shitting hell. So we finally make it almost to the end when Ashlea dies and I am about to take the controller and we have a static reaction and shock the hell out of the controller and now it won't work. We have three controllers and a memory card and nothing will work. Ashlea is shocked that we shocked it to not work. And frankly so am I. WTF. Obviously the universe doesn't want us to play crash. Well guess what universe, fuck you too. Fuck you. And we aren't even watching Monday Night football. At least both the Dolphins and the Giants won yesterday Booya! Pats and Cowboys can suck it. Thats at least one good thing to come of this.

This is the face of disappointment.

This is the mess we made trying to get that damn thing to work....

Ol' Hallow's Eve

So this is me before I went down to meet m friends. Just testing out the ol' Vamp teeth.

OMG, kitten is so cute. He was sleeping in my armor.

Wiggles came out to play for an instant.

This is my mad hopping skills

Me and the girls.

Happy Halloween!

Foosball!!!

The two-step, behold.

These are the fake fake vamp teeth.

Do it! At the party.

Lesbain-latino bar....not really.

Guns and guns...hey I am a cowboy.

I did his amazing hair! Booya!

Us in a bathroom. Aren't we cute.

Me the day after. I am still a cowboy and unlike some others I am not hungover. :)
