No white Christmas for us though, just rain and cool temperatures. I’ve had a nice couple of days leading up to today. Spent time with my sister and brother-in-law last Thursday evening exchanging presents then having a delicious dinner at Simp McGhee’s.

Friday I was off and I spent most of it just laying around and resting. That night I headed to Jeff’s new place for this “Festivus” get together. I’m no Seinfeld fanatic like Jeff and Kyle are but I figured what little I knew about Festivus might cause some funny things to happen. I took several pictures through the night, some of which will prove to be pretty funny. After the “airing of greivances”, we played a game of Cranium. During the game, I learned that the monk responsible for doing DNA tests with peas was Gregor Mendel. My answer of “St. Francis of Assisi” was waaaaay off. Funniest though was Shane’s pronunciation of “famine”. He had never seen that word before and pronounced it as “fuh-MEEN”. We were all rollin’!
