Well, Christmas was great. Sarah and I got some cool stuff: clothes, books, DVDs, and a tripod. Sarah and I bought our own gifts for ourselves; we bought the Planet Earth DVDs, a box for Sarah's wedding dress, an All-Clad fry pan, and some new lenses for our camera. Sarah loves her new pan, and I love my new camera gear. The most unexpected gift I received was from my brother Patrick--he bought me a toy truck, and it wasn't just ANY truck: it was the exact kind of truck that he had destroyed when I was in elementary school. He found it online and bought it for me; I have to say that it was probably the coolest thing ever. I told Sarah later that, "If I had been more tired or possibly sick when Patrick gave me the truck, I probably would have teared up a bit."
For New Year's Eve, we went to our friends' house from church and stayed there until 3:15 am, then we went home and watched TV for about another hour. We had a great time there--I played "Guitar Hero" for the first time and did pretty well.
Sarah has officially started her LAST QUARTER at UC Davis, and she will be finished in March. She is taking four classes: "The Earth," "Non-Verbal Communication," "Individual Differences," and "Health Psychology." Her graduation ceremony will be June 14th.
We can't wait for David, Joanna, and Declan to come up in a couple of weeks; it will be the first time we get to see Declan in REAL LIFE!

being in my condition i would have teared up, i'm a bit more emotional now a days.
we played guitar hero too on New Years Eve for the first time. Also, rock band which is the same thing except there are drums, vocals, bass and guitar together. It was way awesome. We have not played video games in a long time so we rather enjoyed it. Especially since we could play to all our 90's rock songs that we loved. Good times.
At least you have the right trilogy in hand.
what is the DVD on the top of the stack? Is that Alien?
