1- I threw snow from the upstairs balcony as the kids ran to open their presents. it was well accepted until Mutant fell and then i was scolded and had to put away the snow.
2- parents got a 2 seater bike from the 5 Sid kids - it's fast.
3- Cmas tree lane - i am going to venture to say that the kids were more interested in riding on uncle's shoulders and dogfighting as if in planes than they were seeing all the lights. except maybe for snoopy on the roof, in his WWI plane.
4- watched ratatouille - i'm always down for a good peasant's meal.
5- Braden got a whistle. he woke me up with it 1 foot away from my ear
6- I slept in my Return of the Jedi sleeping bag that i used to sleep in every sleepover growing up. still fit like a charm, but Aaroneous wasn't there.
7- i got an underwater camera that goes to 33ft deep. its like the Maxes one & i plan on taking this camera to the max. here is a pic of usually cute niece Rachel from underwater. Yeah, it will be fun.
8- about 22 people answered my Cmas text message. 8 answered, "Who is this?"
9- My dad got Transformers and Pirates DVD and we even watched Zooooom
10- Saw the MOB at Josh and Tasha's house, which sincerely rules. I like throwing darts and Brevity appears to be a great comic strip
11- BYU 17, UCLA 16.
12- played ultimate with Hans and Kaisa and MOB.
13- we acted out the nativity- i was the donkey, anne was an angel (she was on my shoulders to simulate appearing from the heavens)that appeared to the shepherds, Rachel was Mary, Robby Josef and nephew jack jack was the wise man who sprinted and giggled all the way to the baby Jesus
14- took albert and sister through 14 levels of super nintendo donkey kong in 1 hour.
Bonus: the older German gentleman behind me on the plane was in the same dueling fraternity (Trier Tavern Club) as Karl Marx was. Interesting enough, these Fraternities were started to clean up the bad name German universities had gotten from the conduct of their students in the 18th century. Karl Marx bore a scar over his left eye from a duel in 1836. This German Herr reported that fencers only used small goggles over their eyes and deflectors on their ears. He had a scar between his eyebrows and one on his forehead.

Different bag designs, but same idea. I love those things. I wish they made one what was for 20 below weather.
2-seater bike?! That's freakin' awesome.

My cousin had that same sleeping bag. I still think it's cool. I'm such a nerd. :)

I have the same sleeping bag. I haven't used it in a decade, but it is also at my parents house in Modesto.
YAY Jarom for coming to see me and my blog page! I'd say it's time for an update on yours there huh?
Excellent--but it is time for a new post, Papa.
