Christmas day

We had a lovely christmas yesterday. They day started with stuff to do, but the evening was peaceful and quiet.

I had barely gotten out of bed when [livejournal.com profile] beluga knocked on the door. We drove up to Isen to deliver her christmas presents. Then I drove [livejournal.com profile] beluga home, though I should be nice, since it was friggin' cold outside, and the bus takes ages.

When I got back home I quickly ate breakfast, then helped my dad in the kitchen. When my parents had their afternoon nap, I grabbed the chance to keep one of my traditions alive; watching a silly/stupid/bad movie. I put "Robin Hood: Men in Tights" in the VCR and started watching, but by the time they got to the archery contest I was fast asleep. Guess the last couple of days finally caught up with me. I woke up again just to see Patrick Stewart in the credits.

After that I had more chores to do, but that was ok. I just took it easy, and thing got done. Eventually we could finally sit down and enjoy our christmas dinner. It was lovely, i've been dreaming of that food for months now.
After supper it was time for presents. I was very happy this year. ;) My parents were pleased with what I got them.
Some of the things I got:
* Printer for my laptop.
* Adidas watch.
* "Bowling for Columbine" DVD.
* Candlesticks.
* A nice sweater.
* Light for my movie-camera.
* "X2" collage.
* Evanessence CD
* "Lord of the Rings: Return of the King" picture.
* Necklace, ear-rings, ring and bracelet.
* A pack of "Lord of the Rings: Return of the King" trading cards.
* ect ect ect

Am very happy, and nothing will be traded. I only have to get the watch tightened.

No, the collage is a picture, withe various pics from the movie put together, it's pretty cool.
You got the book? Cool, it's good isn't it. I'm very happy with my copy. :)

Oh cool! I love putting collages together too.

Yea the book is awesome.. i love behind the scenes stuff. :) I really hope they put a Danger Room scene in the next one! They gotta..

Yeah, I like making collages aw well, but this was something pro. My friend bought it when we were at Collectormania 4. It's nice tho. :)

I love the book, the behind the scenes stuff is great as well. I'm also hoping for the dager room. I read about a scene from the first one that they still have in case they can use it. Logan get's his butt kicked by the program since he's caught off guard or sumtin... would be fun. :)

oh god.. *giggles* that would be so bad, heh heh. I assumed they would have him kicking ass, but this would be funny. You know he'll get pissy about it too. ;) I'm sure they will either way, it's been so talked about.

Pro collage sounds cool.. must be nice!
