Khristmas at the Kleiders!!!

This was the scene yesterday afternoon during my failed attempt to get to Fort Langley. This time the weather was a little clearer, so I had success in getting to my destination. The Fort Langley Community Hall... I've worked here so many times when it's used as a film set. The last time I was here filming "Santa Buddies", they had to use fake snow to decorate the front of this building, but this time it was all real! Fort Langley is such a pretty place. It's almost as if it were untouched by time. On the walk over to Dr. Nick's place, I thought of suggesting to the guys to build a snowman outside of the house, but when I got there... They were already constructing an igloo! LOL!!! It was a big one too. Lila and Tamara supervising the construction... Who's that with the big ball in her mouth? Why it's none other than Suzy Q!!! She's such a cutie pie. She had a friend over too. Her name is Kimmie. All ready for a belly rub... The Kleider Kitchen... Suzy's tongue... I always kiss her when she's looking the other way. The shirt says it all. Once again, Dr. Nick prepared his "Triple B"! The Beer Battered Bird... The juiciest turkey I've ever had! Some fine dining... Tamara and Nicholas at the kids' tables... Jeff and Andrew... A feast fit for kings... I just love coming over here. The dogs went into scavenger mode. Anelore... Anelore and Misha... Suzy wanted some handouts. Alex, Lila, Elizabeth, and Sarah... Kimmie and Suzy... Fatty and Popa Fett... Sisters, Elizabeth and Sarah... The tables our turned... I am now the subject of my camera. You can see Nicholas' plumber's crack in this one. Sarah with her Kimmie... The dogs still waited for some scraps to fall off the kitchen counter. Fatty with Lila sleeping in his arms... Whoops! She's awake now. Fatty looked stoned in this one. LOL!!! During our gift giving, Suzy got a little excited for some reason! Makes you want to watch "Marley & Me". She loves Fatty. Kimmie with her Sarah... Shortly after, Dr. Nick began preparations for dessert. All bowls were filled with ice cream. Suzy wanting some too... Getting ready for some Banana Flambe... Kimmie sprawled out on the floor to cool herself off. With flash... And without... Operation: Flambe is in full effect! "Fireball, fireball, fireball..." Fucken, so rad!!! Delicious dessert... After our meals, we played a few rounds of Catch Phrase. Later, some of us went into the hot tub, some enjoyed the igloo, but I played Scrabble with the adults. LOL!!! Lynn and Brian... An inebriated Elizabeth with her husband, Dr. Nick... Aaawww... Suzy was pooped out.Our night wasn't over yet, we zipped over to the theatre to watch Tom Cruise in "Valkyrie". The movie was really good! We were in such a rush to watch the movie that I didn't notice the Enterprise-E hanging from above the theatre's entrance. I can't wait for the next "Star Trek" movie. Super thanks to Dr. Nick and Elizabeth for preparing dinner for us all!!! Merry Christmas, everybody!!!
