Welcome, Midna

 Because I drove Ori onto the rocks, which should be #OriOnTheRocks or something, we had to get a new-to-us vehicle. Welcome, Midna, a 2010 Honda Accord. Since our clan has 3 cousins born in 2010, we figure it's a good vintage year. Thing Two and Triskal, our late Newfie, and Pepe the Pilot are/were all 2005 models, haha, and we've had great luck with those. 

Midna is a character in Twilight Princess, a video game in the Legend of Zelda franchise, for those of you who were somehow unaware of Thing One's oldest obsession. 

Cadaver, do you even have a license?! Hmm. At this rate, you might have yours before Thing Two gets his...

"...not the one who needs defending..."

If you haven't already heard this story, you'll be glad you came to the blog today. Carrie's best gift this Christmas was a sword. Yes, you read that right. Her friend Isaac, who moved away at the end of the second grade school year, found this sword and told his mom he wanted to get it for Carrie. His mom, Rebecca, contacted me and we okayed it. When she found out it was an actual stainless steel blade, she obviously contacted us again! EEEEEEEP. We agreed it'd be a splendid piece of decorative art for her bedroom wall ONLY. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves and you can decide what she thought of Isaac's gift. It is an exact replica of the sword used by Link in the Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess. If you remember, Carrie was Link for Halloween. Thank goodness Christmas comes AFTER Halloween is all I can say!

Trick or Treat 2011

Damon doesn't look too sure about this whole deal.

"Oh, I get it. Liam's Bumblebee Transformer, and Carrie's Link from the Legend of Zelda!"

"Now who's got the goods?"

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas

Well, not really. But a Christmas list from our resident 7 year old has appeared:

Have fun guessing what each item is. A rudimentary knowledge of "The Legend of Zelda" and "Diego" might be helpful...
