Holiday Wrap Up

I hope your Christmas was a wonderful time spent with everyone most important to you.  Our day was filled with tears (even a few of joy), whine (and wine), coffee, love and friends.  After opening gifts with Papa watching via Skype, we spent some time playing with the new toys and then cleaning up the aftermath.  By mid-afternoon we had a half-dozen people over to play games and eat yummy foods. 

The hit game of the night was a new (to us) game called Munchkin, specifically the Zombie version of the game.  We had a good time playing.  Kendra suckered Kai into playing a few games of Uno with her.  That kid is vicious!  She is a take no prisoners player.  We are in trouble when she learns poker!

Santa was good to both kids this year, bringing Kendra a guitar and game and Darian some toy cars and a dragon pillow pet.   Dan gave me wonderful electronic keyboard.  With luck, I'll find time to practice and regain some skills I used to have.

All in all it was a good Christmas, and I'm thankful I was able to celebrate the blessed holiday with my wonderful family.
