I worked again last night.  And then slept in the morning.
The kids had a LOT gong on…  And so did we.

John drove Johanna to join her AHG friends ringing bells.  Technically it is not an AHG event because it includes fund raising. 

Meanwhile, I got myself awake, and around, and we walked down to Anna and Condy’s to watch THE BIG GAME!

What is THE BIG GAME?

OHHHHH – How could we never had known about THE BIG GAME?!

It was the annual, Saturday after Thanksgiving football game between the University of South Carolina Gamecocks (the underdogs) and the Clemson Tigers (the favorites).

And the Gamecocks won!  As people who don’t really know anything about either, we were strongly encouraged by Anna and her kids to root for the Gamecocks.  It was very exciting, and the Richardson’s had a feast. 

We headed home for a while, and then later they joined us for dinner at our house (originally we’d all imagined the game would have been at dinner time).

Oh – and here are our trees for the year.
The theme of the year was, “Um.  Yeah.  Let’s get some decorations on the trees.”

Katriel and Nigel were big helpers this year.
