and we opened our own presents to and from one another before heading to kevin’s sister’s to give our holiday greetings, and then over to cameron’s for a christmas dinner lunch.

after thoroughly stuffing ourselves and zach talking profusely about footlongs, and letting everyone know that pat has a manbaby, (apparently, a footlong one,) we head out to walk off all that tofurkey. equipt with a bag of relish tray leftovers, and with the afternoon drawing to a close, we made the nearby donkey’s christmas before heading back home.

deciding to try out one of zach’s presents, we conclude that it’s dance dance revolution time. hilarity ensues.

 

cameron… dancing?

Santa Monica

What better a way to spend a rainy day than eating good food? We began our trip to Santa Monica with an awesome lunch at The Veggie Grill’s newest location; hello, smorgasbord of goodness. Walked it off down the pier (after upgrading one of our umbrellas from miniature size to XL, as to better beat up pigeons with it) and stopped by a well-stocked, albeit overpriced guitar store. Lunch #2 at Starbucks, followed up with coffees, hot cocoa, nonsensical riddles, and a long drive home.
