Merry Christmas everyone.

I wanted to do something special, but I don't know what exactly. Help me out with that.

....and a partridge in a pear tree.

    I've always liked this moment from Garfield's Christmas special, but ever since Dad passed away it holds more emotional weight for me.

    Keep those who have passed on in your memory around Christmas and the joy they brought will live on in you.

    Hi, friend!

    I woke up and opened my presents with my husband. Unfortunately, he dislikes Christmas and every year he is always in a bad mood. Sigh.
    I received a lot of useless stuff.

    Then I played Master of Olympus Zeus for a while and I had a lot of fun.

    For lunch, I went to my sister's house and we ate with my parents. I baked a tart with chocolate ganache ;)

    I will spend the night with my husband's family, although I would love to play Zeus so badly. I am having fun with the Athens campaign! :)

    Merry Christmas!

    @ZaramMaldovar Thanks! He is a little warrior, life has already put him though so much.

    @Aedan I think he has a Jack of Spades, bet it all!

    Start counting cards nobody will notice.

    Also Die Hard just hit the part where he drops the bomb.

    Alan Rickman as Hans Gruber is both intimidating and hilarious

    We have a British man
    pretending to be a German man
    doing a fake American accent

    Gods we lost a lot of great actors in 2016.

    Die Hard is the best Christmas movie.

    The Star of Christmas (Veggietales I know, sue me) is my favorite, but Die Hard is definitely somewhere on my list.

    It was Dad's favorite though :(

    Hey, don't knock Veggitales. That stuff is legit. :)

    The Star of Christmas is the only Christmas special I watch without fail first thing in the morning after opening my presents every year since at least 2006.

    We were playing tarot poker this morning. My wife dealt me the Queen of Wands, which filled my inside straight, and everyone at the table died. More kolaches for me, I guess.

    I started my day off the same way I do every year, I woke up at around 8-ish, opened my presents and watched The Star of Christmas.

    Later I will watch Die Hard, a tradition that Dad started with me two years ago and leave an empty seat in front of the TV for him.

    One of my neighbors is making Christmas Dinner and she said she would leave me a plate.

    How are you guys Celebrating Christmas?

    As you mentioned a good Christmas movie, Die Hard, we need the appropriate song (from the movie) and music video to go with it. ;)B)

    Last year my Dad blasted that song on his laptop after we finished watching Die Hard...for about half an hour.

    A little late to the party, this board is closed all but officially.
    Great post though.
