Christmas was great

It was a wonderful, peaceful day filled with lots of fun and laughter. We ate around 10, then Ryan did a great job reading from the Bible. Sophie led us in a rousing round of Happy Birthday to Jesus and we finally got around to opening gifts about 11. We finished somewhere around 2 and I think everyone was very pleased with their gifts.

I got a new digital camera to just keep with me for those times I wish I had a camera with me. I got Billski way too much to even list -- he only gets spoiled one day a year, so I usually do it right.

The kids got a variety of things, but it was capped off with a Wii. Did you hear the screams? Because they went on for about 3 solid minutes. They were as surprised as anyone has ever been surprised in the history of mankind.

We got a lot of new games which we tried out this afternoon. Sophie and Keegan were absolutely delightful during the entire day. We topped off the day with everyone going out to eat Chinese food - ala The Christmas Story.

Fa Ra Ra Ra Ra and good night.
