Christmas in KC – 12.22.2011

If there is one things that the kids love, its sleeping on cots! Christmas can be a busy time at my parents house, so we just make room wherever we fit.

The real magic of this gathering is just being around family. There is comfort in long talks into the night about the state of the family and the world surrounding us. Corvin wants to be just like dad, so he tries to juggle oranges like his dad used to do in the kitchen. Only the story goes that I used eggs and broke a few…

In an effort to bring extra joy to the season, I decided to make a HUGE quantity of whiskey balls! I used extra strong whiskey which sort of ruined it…

While we were in town, I helped Hiatt and Herman work on their vehicles. In Haake fashion, only one of the two auto projects worked. But the one that did work only did so by the guidance of a collision shop full of tools and knowledge (thanks Mike)!
