excellent game footage erico.

gives me something to study, try to figure out why i spend so much time on the ice.

ao: About six.

I will probably be in MP tomorrow. Can someone please let me know what time dinner is?

Those are all from the big camera. I'm not ambitious enough tonight to put the ones from the little camera up. Maybe tomorrow night.

Broomball: Not as fast of a sport as you thought:

We have Lauren's coat. Nathaniel and Merel plan to bring it back.

not enough upchucking, so Lauren spent 2am - 5am spilling groceries. Didn't have to leave
grandpa's house out of the 'festivities'.

Not enough sore muscles and bruises, so we went roller skating.

First to post my Christmas pictures!

My Christmas Photos

Lots and lots of snow in Lemont too.

dead kittens... oy.

Suitcases packed, presents wrapped. Nico is eating a 'affle. We're just waiting to go to Daniela's Christmas party. I just read there is a chili cookoff at the plant, so I don't expect Edgardo home until after lunch. Will all this stuff fit in the van? C U soon!

I'm guessing that secret poster was our neighbor, Julie Gall. The girls helped her decorate that tree a couple Sundays ago and Eric and I had a couple quiet hours. Nice job. It looks terrific.

If the kids are looking for something to do today - or you need to remind them about good behavior, try this web conference with Santa:

Nico and I are ready to go! The rest will be ready tomorrow!

I accept your challenge and present Roman as my beard growing medium.

And now that clock reminds me of what I'm missing out on - or how late I am. Thankfully we should be there in about 10 hours!

I challenge all ohler males to a holiday beard growing contest.

start now.

and we're rolling again

she wants more business for the hospital?
sandy could try that!

Sarah, It is rollerskating. I think the owner volunteers at the same hospital I do. That's who gave me the passes.

Mom, Did you get my messages about the chairs and decorations? Do you think that is okay?

Aunt Adrienne!!! If you take Daniela ice skating, she will do ANYTHING for you..... oh, please, please, please. It is her dream to be an ice-skating, scuba-diving rock star, so pleeeeease, help her dream come true! (or are you talking roller-skating? oh, well, that's another dream...we'll take it!)

P.S. one more hour of work left!

but there are 22 of us.
