Leading up to Christmas I went to a pretty awesome event called a "teddy bear toss". It is a special ice hockey event for charity. Some people and I from work went along to a Giants game and when the local side scored the first goal everyone chucks a teddy bear on to the ice. It was pretty funny because there was a "close" goal in the first period and people started chucking teddy bears. They had to put a sign up on the big screen saying "NO BEARS! NO BEARS!" Hilarious. When the finally did score it was bloody amazing. So many goddamn bears! There were bears being chucked on to the ice for a couple of minutes and they must have spent about 15min getting them all off the ice. Absolute teddy bear mayhem. All the bears get donated to charity so it was pretty cool.
Actual Christmas day of 2013 was pretty sweet. I can't say that I feel too bad about being invited to two christmasas but it does make it tricky to decide between the Fishers and the Pearses'. I decided to go out to Abbotsford to have christmas with Pam, Terry, Lucas and Mitch again as I had spend thanksgiving with the Fishers. It was great, I got given lots of bear and a beer tasting tool kit amongst other things. Mummy and Daddy gave me a personal locator beacon so that was pretty sweet too. Other than that I ate lots and drank lots, good times. Didn't have a white Christmas again but there was a bit of snow a couple of weeks before.
