Christmas Cruise
12.24.11 | Permalink | | Comments Off on Christmas Cruise
Last night we were allowed aboard a lovely vessel owned by the Jansens. I work with both Joanie and Carly, and over the past few years Joanie has talked about the Christmas light parades that her yacht club participates in every year. This year I asked Joanie in early December if they ever have an extra seat on their boat during one of their cruises that we would like to come along. It turned out that we were part of a small gathering, just their daughter Carly, who also happens to be Gigi’s teacher, our family, the captain and his first mate, and a couple who hopped on-board just as we were leaving. As we headed out into Lake Union a flurry of boats started making their way under the bridge, flooding the waterway, sparkling with lights. It such a special experience. We made our way around the lake, bundled in blankets, snuggled up on the bow, singing Christmas Carols and having a lovely time. It was a reminder to Bradley and I about how we started off in the Chriscraft in the Port of Everett, and made us think about how perhaps we would like to spend our retirement on a boat. Time will tell, but it seems an appropriate way to bookend our life of adventure together. SO this was a special adventure that we were ever-so-grateful to be able to tag along on.
The following are pictures that don’t capture the splendor of it all. Night pictures without flash are not a favorite of our camera’s, but I still think they are pretty.

My Favorite Things

OK. What this song lacks in polish and presentation, it makes up for in sheer comedic value.
This was the first try. Not just the first take, the first ATTEMPT at singing this song together. I think this is a pretty good insight into the dorkiness that ensues round about these here parts. We didn’t bother with retakes since I think that even if we nailed it we couldn’t surpass the character sketch that occurs here.
Merry Christmas

Happy Holidays from the LJ’s! This is coming down the Pike in your Christmas cards (sorry we are belated, we dream BIG!) So if you find you need more than one rocking good time with the LJ’s, or you accidentally scissored my guitar hand off, then you can simply download the PDF file below and reproduce to your heart’s Christmas content. If you print out enough of us we can be the figurines in your New Year’s Zombie Apocalypse role-play to ring in the New Year (don’t act as if you don’t all do that… I know you do). If you really want to get the full effect, set us up on your mantle and play some Christmas ditties from our web posts this holiday. Oh, and have a cup of cheer!
