Vacation from vacation

Here we (Ardith, Jason, Kendra and I) are at Ardith's celebrating the post-Christmas festivities, or warding off post-Christmas depression, or being lazy bums during holidy vacation, depending on which extreme you like. Actually, I think I prefer this one: enjoying half a week with Ardith at her house.

We're making good use of the time, particularly those of us who don't get in as much city experience. Last night we tested out Pizza Hut's stuffed crust supreme pizza while Ardith introduced us to MacGuyver and his creative ways of using matches and maps. Today Ardith and Jason managed a laudable amount of video gaming while Kendra and I finished whole chapters of books... still leaving time for the girls to run a successful shopping trip in which they all walked away with at least one clothing item. This evening Ardith made us a very delicious supper, no leftovers. Then tonight we're off to see Eragon... depending on the person, to see it, to laugh at it, to take in the special effects, to critique it, to compare it to other fantasy films, and then maybe one or two of us are just going to enjoy it and enjoy sharing the seeing with great siblings.

For Derek, Melinda, Carolyn, Ethan, Nolan, Trevor: Hi guys! Are you getting all the Christmas cookies and fudge eaten up? Don't forget to come down on Saturday! :)
