oh happy (christmas) day

i come at you live from an intense and boring game (to me) of risk. matt got it from traci for christmas and corey, kel and dad braved it to play with matt.

as of now dad, kel and matt are still in it.


corey has been enjoying his coffee...


and threatening matt to be nice to kel with his new air soft gun (dad got them for all the boys).


and matt's staying strong though he feels fatigued.


and traci and i have occupied ourselves by taking pictures.


and eating cookies.


and reading up on london.


by the way, i need to go and pack still.


and mom has been fixing chipped plates and stuff.


and i realized that this is what the tree actually looks like when i don't have my glasses on.


overall, it has been a very happy christmas. i think matt has been most excited about his presents. his faces have been priceless. and matt made me (with the help of isaac) a tv stand which i love! i will post a picture when we return from our trip.

we wish everyone a merry christmas and happy new year!

first of all...let me just say that Risk is the most boring and frustrating game in the history of the world....i think i dislike it even more than Monopoly.....i feel for you.
Secondly - i know you are in London right now, but i MISS YOU already! i hope you and matt and sarah and isaac are having tons of fun. i still have not been to Europe, and i am jealous.
i am very interested to see your new TV stand. i guess i will just have to come over.... *sigh*
k - love you lots!
