Happy Christmas Eve Day

We have had a nice, but too short visit with Jodi and Phil. They gave Addy and Erik their gifts yesterday afternoon. They gave Addy a nice pair of black boots, to which she exclaimed "Little boots for me." She obviously remembered tromping around in Jodi's boots in October.

Erik is currently painting the nutcracker that he received. He had been asking to do it since yesterday afternoon. He also received what can best be described as Magnetix on steroids. He immediately put them together to make mics, handed one to Phil, Jodi and me, and tried to conduct us as a chorus. It didn't work to well.

After visiting with Phil's mum and step-dad, they returned for some more gift sharing. Ellyn received a pair of Toms Shoes, or rather a gift cert to choose a pair. She is still undecided.

I got something I was hoping for, a Murloco's Fish Taco's Shirt. I also got an uber cool Atari Flash Back 2. It is safe to say that Phil and Jodi, definitely know their audience.

After we gifted, we chilled, talked, Ataried, nachoed and had a good time, until way too late. This morning we (D, E, E, A, Phil, Jodi, Mum, Dad, Steve, and Melissa) met at Slopes for brunch, a good time was had by all. Unfortunately for us, Phil and Jodi are headed to Portland to do some Christmas type things with her family. We never seem to get enough visit time.

In a few hours we shall begin the gifting in earnest. We usually give the gifts to each other on the Eve, and Santa's stuff on the Day. It breaks things up for the kids and makes it easier to have a meal. More on all that later.

I hope you are all having a nice day, and that your teams are doing well. Merry Christmas.
