Christmas brunch this morning

My friends have developed a bit of a ritual of going for brunch on the weekends over in Yaletown--I drag my ass out there whenever I'm up early enough and go join them. It only seemed fitting to go have a final pre-Christmas brunch with Tall Scott and Parveen (sadly Scott H. headed out to the Okanagan yesterday, so he couldn't make it), and since my parents are in town, I risked it and brought them along too!

We were going to go to a more shmancy place, but it was packed so we ended up at our usual place, which was kinda fitting. Had brunch, chatted, and exchanged our Christmas presents before the boys head out to the burbs to hang with their families for the next few days...

Tall Scott, Scott H., and Mark and Deb got me a fantastic new 50mm lens for my camera, which I wasn't expecting at all and is totally rad (as you can see I was testing it out at brunch)--now I'm gonna drive them crazy taking tons of pictures, mwahaha! And Tall Scott also got us movie passes so we can all go out to a movie together.

And Parveen got me two tickets to the Feist and Ron Sexsmith concert in February. So great, cause I was nearly going to buy tickets for it--of course I'm going to take Parv with me, since it's on Feb. 12th, I figure he can be my defacto Valentine's date.

Thanks boys for the rad presents and for everything--I love you to bits!
