Happy day before New Year's Eve!

We spent a lovely day with my side of the family at my aunt and uncle's house today. Delicious brunch, a viewing of the James Brown gospel scene from The Blues Brothers, tasty Christmas cookies, a brisk walk around the block, a game of Zigity with Isaak, and the St. Olaf Choir on DVR. What more could you ask for?

Oh, we also took a completely painless family photo, thanks to David and his spiffy remote-controlled camera (nice job on pressing the button at the perfect time, Isaak!). I love these people!
