wii...

Wii had Christmas with R's family today. And wii got one family gift (vs. a bunch of small gifts, and toys that are discarded by March) and it's a wii. wwwwiiiiii - were not usually a gaming family - but wii've had so much fun playing on my sister in laws wii had to ask for one.
And it's fun to say wii... we = wii... wwwwiiiiii...
It was a fun day, and it snowed. And the kids played in the snow. And we had cigar -o- thirty, in the snow. And we watched the dogs play in the snow. And we had hot chocolate, and watched it snow. We played more in the snow. We chained up the car, in the snow. Yeah for snow on 'Christmas'.
Growing up we always had snow on Christmas. We spent Christmas with my Nana and Grandpa John. They lived in rural eastern Oregon. We'd open gifts, eat lunch, then load up to go snowmobiling. We'd spend our holiday snowmobiling. It was so much fun. So the snow today brought back fond memories of hours spent in the snow celebrating the holidays. I'm not sure how snowmobiling celebrates Jesus birth - but I'm also not sure how eating turkey does either. Or how playing Rockband on the wii does either. But it sure was fun.
