Happy Natal Eruption Days

On Friday, Ted and Nancy came over so that we could celebrate the two family birthdays that occured this week: Sherry's on the 5th and Ted's on the 8th. After a nice lunch out at Reino's, we hurried back to the homestead to dive into some serious card playing. (Joy and Chris, please note the scorepad in the picture.) Todd "won" the first round by amassing an exact 100. Sherry repeated this dubious feat in the second round. By then it was decided by all that cake should be eaten. And so it was. After a third lightning fast round of Hearts, the group decided that before Ted and Nancy departed for Strongsville, that supper was in order. And so it was.

In the end our day with Ted and Nancy looked like this: eat, look at pictures, presents, cards, cards, eat, cards, eat.

All in all, a very nice day.
