Chad and Mike playing DS

Alan and Gaoder's House

Sitting at Alan's and Gaoder's new house before we head out to dinner
in Des Moines.

Pool Table

Here is the pool table the family got for Mom and Dad! It's pretty
awesome. :) We have already played a dozen games and I think I've lost
every one. ;) Mom got Dad a set of Virginia Tech pool balls so we'll
have those out soon enough.

Hope everyone is having a good Christmas morning!

Iowa!

It's snowing - all signs looking good for a white Christmas. ;)

Our Ikea basil is sprouting!

Laura and I got some basil from Ikea and it's finally sprouting in the
window. :) I hope at least one of those plants grows well so we can
make Parmesan chicken or pizza.
