Chritmas was nice. An early morning run while the world was still quiet, watching the sunrise over the farm. Mickey "Holiday Cheer" coffee with bagels and smoked salmon.
Digging into the stockings and the gifts. Got some nice running gear, "The Spirit of the Marathon" CD and DVD, Sirius radio. Had some family over for a buffet, enjoyed some adult libations, got to chat with my son and grandson in FL.
All in all, it was a very nice day. Back in the office today. Less than 2 weeks until we leave for Mickey's marathon. Our Magical gathering will consisit of about 12 people this year. We're going try and behave and not get kicked out of All Star Sports like those Pop Warner football teams. _________________ [ |

We had a really nice Christmas. The kids and grandkid were over on Christmas Eve. We had Chinese food, opened gifts, and played Mario Party. After I took them home, we let Elizabeth open a gift, then we went to bed.
We were up early on Christmas day so we could make some bread, then we opened presents! At noon, we went to my sister-in-law's for dinner and spent the time with deb's parents and her sister's family. We didn't get home until 9pm.
All in all, it was a nice day, but man was I tired by the end!
I hope everyone had a great Christmas! _________________ When you're curious, you find lots of interesting things to do.

I had a great time!
A fun surprise as i reconnected with a friend and we went to Christmas Eve service together and then spent Christmas day together with some other girls. We had a traditional Irish Christmas Dinner, popped Christmas Crackers, watched Vicar of Dibley's Christmas special and Love Actually.
Due to the weather none of my gifts went out to family and none arrived. Also due to weather I've not been to work since the 17th. i've not been home a whole lot, but I've been afoot and wandering about!
A lovely holiday!!

Christmas was great!
Scored an Xbox 360 from the fiance as well as some other good stuff. We went to Mickey;s Very Merry and had a blast! It was totally empty!
We did the other parks too which weren't too busy, but at MGM Midway Mania was at 100 mins, so we decided to skip.
I'm back in Chicago now and bummin'. |

Had both Hannukkah and Christmas with our various families.
As to be expected, the little tadpole made out like a bandit. I now have to figure out how to get all this stuff back home and figure out where it is all going to go! |

Sounds like you need an additional pond to keep the Tadpole's stuff in! _________________ When you're curious, you find lots of interesting things to do.

Not only does the stuff get bigger, but it gets loader and more expensive too.
Glad to hear everyone saying they had a good holiday. |

And you didn't call!!!! That's it. When I fly into Atlanta tomorrow I won't be calling you. And I'm going to put you on my Christmas card list just so I can cross you off.
So your boys like snow. I have extra shovels. Send them over. _________________ [ |
