Christmas, in January?

Dad's side of the family had a belated Christmas, combined with Grandma's 84th birthday celebration this past weekend. Everyone was able to attend, as evidenced by our traditional group shot at Grandma's house:




My sister won the Pickle competition.  I was disappointed that I couldn't regain my title this year, but I lost to my sister in the first heat, so at least I can say I lost to the champion!  There's always next year!  For dinner, we went to the Walburg Restaurant and enjoyed the good German food, live music, and lively atmosphere.  Good times and good memories...

I aspire to family gatherings like that -- so awesome! And the Walburg Restaurant is great.
