23 Years Ago Today
... the Bears won the Super Bowl. And America got to see the greatest rap video EVER. While I was just a wee lass when this came out - I remember the video. And I remember thinking Jim McMahon was pretty cool - must have been the wrap arounds and sweatband. Enjoy.

Christmas Eve
G-ma, I didn't forget to update this. We just haven't really done anything worth blogging about over the 11 days we've been home. But, we do have some pictures from Christmas Eve so I'm finally getting around to putting those up.
Sean set the mood by putting on the animated fire, courtesy of the Xbox.
We put out a variety of Spanish cheeses as part of the appetizer spread. This is exactly how Sean set it up. I wonder if having both of his parents over is what caused him to stab the cheese knives so violently into the cheese?
How do you make the holidays more enjoyable for all? Share the gift of good hard liquor!
Dinner was pretty easy - we bought a Honey Baked Ham, I made stuffing with andouille sausage, and everyone else brought a dish or two. The leftovers lasted for a week. And then, we taught them to play International Rummy. The Flinns definitely don't play as enthusiastically as the Grobles / Jorns do - but it could be because it was their first time. I think one game with Jimmy would show them how much of a contact game it can be.
