Baby Bang

Today the Bangs became parents.  Vyl went into labor last night and delivered this morning.  They don’t have a name chosen yet so until then, his name will be Baby Bang.  Or maybe Bang Jr.  Whatever…he’ll have both names.

After dinner, Jes and I stopped at the hospital to meet the little guy and to see how his parents were holding up.  At less than a day old, he’s not doing much but he’s certainly a cutie.  Looks like the whole family is comfy in their hospital room, which reminds me of a Motel 6, and handling things moment by moment.

Congratulations to Vyl and Bang!  And welcome to the world, Baby Bang!

Holiday Party

On Saturday night, I hosted a Holiday Party for my co-workers.  We are a deprived bunch and deserved a more festive party this year compared to our pathetic lunch last year.  We had about 40 people show up and we had lots to eat and drink while enjoying each other’s company.  I ordered all the food from Pete’s next door and also made a Costco run for appetizers and drinks.  Everyone chipped in $20 per person and also brought their own booze to make this all possible.

Midway through the party, we had some familiar faces singing Christmas carols for the crowd.  Jes and I had bid on this at a fundraiser and found out a couple weeks ago that it was actually a bunch of people we already knew.  So, when they started singing, I called Victor and Susie to come down to watch too.

By the end of the night, the older folks went home and we were left with the usual HH crew and their significant others.  We continued to eat and drink and played a silly game of “Celebrity”.  Overall, the party was a success and we all had a fun time celebrating the end of the year.

Here are the photos from the party.
