Greetings and welcome to today's random thought.
Well it is New Year's Eve. A family from our ABF is coming over tonight. It should be interesting as both of our families usually fall asleep around 10 PM on New Year's Eve. We will have to see if we all make it. We have the coffee pot thoroughly cleaned so we should be good to go. Also, we found the 4 missing cards from our Uno deck (Can't you tell how exciting this party is going to be? 4 adults passed out at the card table at 10:15 after a rousing game of Uno?).
Christmas was very basic this year. I mean we did not go anywhere or even wrap any gifts (some of the gifts shipped from Kokomo arrived wrapped but as a family we did not wrap any)...
Pretty boring, huh? No matter, the kids had a great time "unboxing" their Christmas gifts. The highlight was the Easy Button (from Staples) for the son. It was the best $5 I spent all year long. The look on his face when he found it in his stocking was great. My favorite gift was the new CD by Tree63. I already have several songs memorized and I have only owned it for a week. Before the morning was over we had to reset our counter...
Notice that there are 366 days left (due to 2008 being a leap year).
Once again, I won the "who gave the best gift" contest that the wife and I have each year. She received a Peyton Manning jersey and then subsequently bowed down before me to announce that I had won the contest for the 10th time in 11 years. She will enjoy wearing this to our Superbowl party and to our church's annual Jersey Day service (where everyone wears their favorite team jersey). She vowed to win next year (as she always does). I have a slight advantage in that I am impossible to shop for but so be it. The game is what it is.
I hope that each of you faithful readers have (had) a great Año Nuevo (New Year).
Thanks for reading my Random Thoughts.
Jon
