christmas eve in las vegas

we drove, i mean, kenny drove for hours on end and finally we got to las vegas, only one month since last time we drove. thankfully our old honda civic was very nice to us and made it up the hills and through the deserts. we even got some of the mysterious fog on film for future projects. i was kinda sick still and slept most of the way, i think kenny listened to his book on tape and was just really happy to have avoided trafic. which is the main goal when driving in california! christmas eve was spend at brother in law michaels house with the rest of the family and the four kids. the presents were opened in an illegal high speed with a few saved for christmas morning. the main event of the night was to get everyone gathered on the stairs for a family picture and after everyones ideas on where to place the camera to get everyone were discussed, i dont even know what happend to the actual pictures... some kids got cut off or something.
other than that there were a few football games on and i got a lot of reading done.
the drive home, again at a time where we would avoid trafic, was a really wonderful kenny- and- camilla time. so when we did get stuck for two hours right outside las vegas in baker.... we were deep into conversations about life and love and future and fun stuff.
the borders giftcard got spend the next day after hours deliberating on how to get most books for the money. i chose the way of getting an expensive art book on david hockney whereas kenny chose the route of getting cheaper but more books for the money.
did i mention this is kennys favourite thing to do, finding out what books to buy or read or want. hours on end....

work is back on and the new yar is coming up, with interesting moves, plans, hopes, ideas, and a lot of unknown.
kjerlighet til alle venner og takk for alle gaver og tanker jeg fikk og kjente. varme folelser til alle mine.
