So this is Christmas.

Christmas was great this year. It was so nice to (relatively) sleep in, and then open presents with the fam in our (cold) living room. This year, I finally got a smartphone and am now the owner of the iPhone 5! It's been fun figuring out what apps I want to use and downloading them. Something  that I thought was pretty neat is that I can actually blog from my phone now! So I'll have to test that out soon. Some other highlights-A. got some crazy book that she loves, K. got a cell phone (my old one!) and A. got a giant Perry the Platypus Pillow Pet. Try saying that ten times fast! And then, Dad pulled off one of the most awesome ways to reveal Mom's Christmas present. It involved, among other things, a frozen Tiffany's charm, driving to sketchy 7-11's on Christmas morning, and a brand-new Kindle Fire HD stored in an Amazon locker (lockers where Amazon drops off your package instead of leaving it out on your doorstep). Pretty awesome.
