Independence Day

Sunday, 27. December 2009 20:38

In Great Britain, it’s called “Boxing Day,” in Germany it’s the “Second Christmas Holiday,” but this year at the Vance house December 26th was “Independence Day.”  Yesterday marked the completion of Jenelle’s most ambitious project of 2009 (well, next to having twins): cleaning and organizing the entire house.  Jenelle calls it “The Purge.”

Building on a long tradition, everyone in the Vance family receives a new Christmas ornament each year.  Here’s a picture of Jenelle’s new ornament.

Ornament

As the mother of three kids under three, Jenelle thinks it’s the perfect ornament for her life right now.  To better understand why, we should explain that the ornament winds up.  Below is a video of it in action.
