Busy and messy

Kitchen activities include sugar cookies, bean soup with the Christmas ham bone (per my dads request), corn chowder for Taylor (vegetarian), homemade coleslaw, and a pork shoulder on the smoker outside. We made a mess, cleaned it up, and ate too much.
Living room activities include guitar hero and other Wii games, cribbage, checkers, billiards (5 person style), and Taylor working on a graphic design task for the next stage of her interview. Plus Miya dropping her ball in anyone’s lap who would toss it for her.
