Christmas 2010 with the SteigerBussLings

I met up with my family in Rocky River, OH for Christmas - that's where my grandparents, aunt, uncle, and cousins (on Ruby's side) live, as well as another aunt who lives nearby in Columbus. There were 13 of us for Christmas, and we all seem to be incapable of holding back when it comes to presents. This is the result:

As you can see, we take Christmas Very Seriously.

Very, very seriously.

I mean, Christmas is serious business. All those presents to open and enjoy. It's definitely not fun at all.

Oh, speaking of presents: my mom got a nerdy teacher present. Can you tell what's in that box? This is one of the presents she was most excited about:

It's an electric pencil sharpener. In the above picture you can see that she feels a little silly about it because none of us are teachers so we don't understand, but really, truly, she is VERY EXCITED about this pencil sharpener!

Also, my cousin is in college.

WTF, I remember when he was a little lump who sometimes cried.

Oh look, I'm going to make a guest appearance on my blog!

I got four mugs this Christmas. Which is cool because I really like mugs. Weird, I know, whatever. But people: I think I'm set for next Christmas, too.
