I missed the usual group run because our extended family headed to Legoland to celebrate my niece's birthday. Like most of life, it was a mixture of human bonding, apathy, tedium and fun. I got to put Anna in the stocks, which was pretty cool.
The last week was a crazy scramble. We hosted my wife's parent for Christmas, and I offered to handle the turkey, stuffing and gravy. I was going to document every stage of the prep, but after photographing the stuffing prep I got too busy.
I keep gaining new appreciation for my Mom. I can't believe what a beast she was to handle that and more for multiple holidays year after year.
