Merry Christmas

As you can see by the clock in the photo of the aftermath of opening presents we had an early morning. All the presents were opened by 7:00 AM. Video games, movies, and clothes were the most prevalent items. We don't get toys at our house any more. After a breakfast of homemade cinnamon rolls we played Kabookii on the Wii. It's a version of the board game Cranium. The kids beat the grownups. Then we watched Zac Ephron, John Travolta, and company in "Hairspray." Our ham feast was followed by a chilly walk around the neighborhood. We had snow mixed with rain during our midday dinner. It definitely felt cold enough to snow during our walk. The Sonics play the Trailblazers tonight so I'm sure we'll watch the game later. Last night Forrest talked to his family since they do most of their celebrating Christmas Eve. I talked to my folks this afternoon in Portland. Today was a nice, quiet day at home. The rest of this week won't be so quiet as we head towards the tournament that our league hosts on the first Saturday after Christmas. It's a one day basketball tournament that runs from 9:00 AM till 9:00 PM. I'm helping coordinate the concession stands at 3 or 4 different sites. I'll be one of those ladies at Costco later this week pushing one of the large flat carts.
