Christmas Weekend part 5: Presents!

On Christmas morning I actually woke up fairly early. Early for me, anyway. Then we had our slightly awkward Christmas tradition of Kevin watching me open the presents form my family. This year Connor got to watch, too! Then Connor went for a run with Kevin's sister and we made pancakes and bacon for lunch. I was going to do scrambled eggs, too, but a rotten egg sort of ruined that plan. Then pancakes were delicious, though.

After breakfast Kevin proceeded to beat everyone at Settlers of Catan because that's how Christmas goes.

In the afternoon we went over to his mom's to open presents with his family. They even got Connor a few things so he wasn't just an observer. Then it was time to make guacamole and head over to some other friends for Christmas dinner.

So many books!

We had leg of lamb for dinner and spent some time arguing about whether this was blasphemous (since Jesus is the Lamb of God and this is supposed to be his birthday) or just a stand-in for Communion (the wine helped make this argument in more ways than one).

After dinner we played Dixit, which is a fantastic party game. Then we played another round of Cards Against Humanity, this time making sure that the adults didn't know what we were up to. There are some things, like gloryholes and smegma, that you just don't want to have to explain.

Once again, Kevin was falling asleep before me, so we didn't stay out too late. Connor volunteered to drive home because he's a pretty awesome little brother.
