… not even a mouse.

The xmas tree is lit, the wife is making cookies and Santa is killing people. Ho ho hell.

This year, Kristin got her first real-live xmas tree. She’s always had a fake one. We decorated it to the tunes of Xmas music, it was lovely (once the tree stopped falling down — hey it’s my first tree too). After a bit of decorating, Kristin pulled out her baby ornament. It says “Baby’s first Xmas 1977″. She laughed, “we have the same ones!” Sure enough, we held mine next to hers and mine said “Baby’s first Xmas 1977″. And odd coincidence that made for some laughs.

This year we’re heading to NC after the holidays. I can’t wait for some more time off from work. I promise to upload the pictures from Amsterdam soon, there are some key ones worth yawning over.
