Xmas morning came in all too soon. Tons of presents and toys for the kids:

The fun part was one of the larger presents that was for both V and D, and they had to assemble a puzzle and find clues to get to the present:

D got some new computer stuff for xmas, and we tried to shuffle things around so he could get his data off the old drives and such. We made quite a nice frankenstine doom:

After that we went and fired up the propane deep fryer to do the turkey. It was pretty amusing:

There is also a nice 135mb movie I made of the turkey going in. I guess I can link it here… might be a lot of BW tho.

Later that night we worked more on computer doom. At one point we had one machine with all the drives in it and another broken machine next to it with it’s power supply powering some of the drives in the first machine. It was quite amusing:
