When we were kids it was always at our grandparents house out in OC. Maybe it changed after they moved to Lake Isabella then? cause a 4 hour drive north is quite a trek. Either way its been going on a while now and its always a lot of fun. The flow of the night tend to vary depending on who shows up, ya know? dynamics of the group. In the years past we would play <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=xSmtRbn8wl8\" target=\"_blank\">Rock Band<\/a> and the girls would sing, I was all time drummer [with my cuz Dave pushin me off every now and again] and my brother Doug on guitar with our Dad swapping bass n guitar. That was lots of fun. Lots of other games would follow and once everyone else went to be it was a campfire or poker with the guys till the last one crashed out. This year we played a couple games but mostly just hung out, had a few drinks and chatted with each other.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As we get older people are added in to the mix or subtracted out, depending on schedules. This is the first year that my cuz Dave hasnt made it. He is now a <a href=\"www.youtube.com\/watch?v=baSyYyqV2X0\" target=\"_blank\">male nurse \ud83d\ude09 <\/a> and low man on the totem pole having to work the dirty holiday shifts nobody else wants to take. Proud of him though and hopefully a couple years from now he will have the seniority to toss some other newbie into the fire. Here are a bunch of snaps from that night.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/yourinnersong.com\/personalblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/XMASeve.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-88\" title=\"XMASeve\" src=\"https:\/\/yourinnersong.com\/personalblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/XMASeve.jpg\" alt=\"XMAS EVE\" width=\"800\" height=\"4097\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Christmas Eve we all get together at my parents house in Menifee, not sure exactly when this started but its been a while.
