Christmas '08

And now behold, two weeks after the fact — the Christmas post.

My mom wasn't our only guest over Christmas. We also took in our good friends Missy and Ben, who are currently living in Finland. For more on their roadtrip through the BALTICS (not the Balkans, as I had previously posted here ... oops) to get to our doorstep, go here.

We spent the week of Christmas napping ...


obliterating one another with rocket launchers ...


Please don't call DCFS.

planting the seeds of diabetes American-style ...


enjoying one another's company ...


and reveling in our Christmas booty.

Jethro and his new La-Z-Boy.

Hope everyone else had as much fun.

I'm impressed. It's only two weeks after Christmas, and you already have your post up. I have nothing about Christmas on my blog...

I love how the obligatory holiday photo had six people in it. Last year's photo had only two. You guys had quite the population explosion...

My favorite picture is of Jake and Jethro there on the couch. I can just see into the future from there...lots of male bonding time to come on the couch. It seems to happen a lot around here, too. I also loved the one of you (was that you) conked out on the bed. Hope you're getting all the rest you need. Looks like a perfect way to spend Christmas...great friends, family, food, fun, & relaxation.

Jaz we had a great time, you and Jake are great hosts. We miss Jethro terribly.

yes, I too love the pic of Jake with 'Thro-bear' (I'm going to try to come up with my own cutsy names for him). He looks like he couldn't be happier.

Jethro looks so cute, Jaz! I love his new La-Z-Boy... Can't wait to see you all!

So, I mis-spoke about the Finland deal, looks like you're still in Germany. I can't believe you went through with natural child birth in a foreign country. I did it in good ol' Utah and it was hard enough. Kudos to you, streetfighter!
Your baby is adorable and you look wonderful. Hope to hear from you soon!
p.s. I'm adding you to my friends list on my blog: dominickandbecky.blogspot.com

So cute Jaz. Looks fun and relaxing. You two know how to really relax and that is such an important thing, will you teach me? I can just feel the comfort and warmth oozing from your apartment. Love you guys!
