christmas with my family − 24 December, 2007

for as long as i can remember, we've gone to my grandma's house in upper michigan for christmas. it was a nice tradition, but the weather was always terrible, and the house was always filled with kids. i think we were all glad to be able to stay here for the holidays this year.

my mom got me the knitpicks options needles i'd been wanting, my brother got matt and i wii controllers, my sister got me puffin boxers and awesome framed gophers prints, and my dad gave us all $1,000 checks. dang.

it was a really fun christmas. we sat around eating appetizers, watching football, and talking for half the day.
