Thanksgiving Update
It was a great Thanksgiving! A mountain of tasty food, perfect OBX weather, and fun time with family.
Did I mention the perfect weather? We had really nice warm sunny days and then a cold front came blowing through the house (literally, it slammed doors) on Thanksgiving night leaving the days crisp and cool with a strong breeze blowing in off the bay.
Andrew, Jenn, Lewis, Sarah, and I (and briefly Jess) relaxed, played videogames, card games, caught a repeat of the final game (UNC vs. FSU) of the women’s ACC tournament, and played with Mom and Dad’s two new kittens.
The women’s soccer game was good, especially since we already knew the outcome (a UNC win of course). We just had a loss in the 3rd round of the NCAA tournament on Saturday. They played a decent game, we played a bad game, and the calls were not exactly accurate. Our team will be amazing next year.
The kittens were extremely cute, as curious and playful as can be. Since they were sequestered away in Lewis’ room to keep dander as isolated from Sarah as possible we would see tiny paws darting out from under the door trying to get some attention. Aww.
The videogame sessions were great. Some Assassin’s Creed and Guitar Hero III on the XBox 360, plus some old school action with The Lost Vikings and Super Bomberman on an old Super Nintendo. They both held up quite well. Well enough that when I got home I browsed around the Wii virtual console and found Super Mario Bros III and Castlevania II, although Assassin’s Creed continues to hold my rapt attention. I bring death to those that deserve it, but something connects these men that perish by my blade….
Baby update soon, Sarah and I get to see it again at the ultrasound tomorrow.
