twelve hours of family christmas fun. then another twelve hours, then another twelve, and finally one more twelve. if you did the math, you know that that makes forty-eight hours of together time. times eleven people, that makes 528 people-hours. together in the same house, our sleeping bags in the same room, eating pistachio salad from the same plastic spoons and drinking martinellis from the same plastic champagne glasses. that is a lot of hours of fun. heaven be with us all.

gingerbread houses
nativity reenactment
princess and the frog
open presents
sledding
play the new games santa brought

eleven settings at the christmas table.
ten dollar dresses for the christmas eve party.
nine cinnamon pretzel bites for dinner.

five tears nearly shed.
four very sore limbs.
