Feliz Navidad 2011

Merry Christmas! All that's left is 7 days til NYE, then another year will have come and gone. Before even beginning my own Christmas shoppin this year, I participated in a Toy Drive at Tracks benefiting Colorado Aids Project. The holiday event was hosted by Nuclia Waste and company. Each of the dozen cast members took the stage to perform Holiday Classics, that were drizzled with adult themes. My fellow "Sexy Elves," Brandon & Chris, and I, greeted attendees and collected their gift donation as they entered. The guests were entertained and had a great time as they were very generous with toys and tips. Lots of funds were raised for CAP! It's great to see many have big hearts. Now days it's shocking when folks aren't nasty. The holidays certainly bring out the best in people, yet worst in others.

Along with collecting the toys, my fellow sexy elves and I, danced side stage as Nuclia's cast and 2 of Tracks' own Drama Drag cast members, took turns hitting the stage while prizes were raffled off in between. We were in a jolly mood as we erupted with laughter as the night went on. Thanks to Bob K with Thin Ice Productions for capturing the night. Find the rest of the pix at: http://thiniceproductions.smugmug.com/Events/GBLT-Community-Events/2011-Island-of-Misfit-Toys/20585503_Tr7vhP#1631298980_prWJhv5. Before night's end we had to bag all the collected toys to be taken for distribution at CAP. We filled roughly 10 bags with gifts. I am glad to have taken place in making other families Christmas' just a little bit brighter. My Christmas was wonderful. Family is everything. Last weekend I spent some famiy time at my father's house along with my sisters, their husbands, and their children. The newly engaged couple's thoughts for the wedding ceremony were in heavy discussion.

This Christmas my family gathered at El Casa de B. Rocha Jr. We spent time together and exchanged gifts yesterday evening. Gil couldn't wait to get into his stocking. He just kept sniffin' and sniffin'. Today is being spent with Gil's long dog friends, Lily and Lucas along with their new sister Maggie. Maggie, the Great Dane is a new addition to the two doxies I sit. This year their parents decided to head to Breckenridge. We have been very cozy watchin cable show marathons and eating tamales, I've practically polished off a dozen since I got here. I'll have to work it out beastmode at 24hr fitness tomorrow. A long, but exciting week will be the final week of this year for me. NYE on Saturday requires all dancers to be available, request from the boss. Also participating in a Drama Drag performance this Friday. This requires rehearsal scheduled to begin tomorrow. Hey, ending 2011 big means 2012 will be brought in even bigger!
