The holidays are winding down and things are returning to normal. We had a wonderful Christmas time (to quote the horrible Paul McCartney tune). We celebrated Christmas (and also Cassie's birthday) at home in Ohio on December 25. We then had a great time with Cari's family in Springfield (a quick less than two day trip) and Jason's family in St. Louis.
During our trip to Springfield the Burns family played a game of Uno for the coveted "Family Trophy." I'm pleased to report that Tommy won the game and trophy (see below), becoming the youngest ever winner of the trophy. His reaction was both overjoyed and priceless. The trophy has since passed to Tom Burns, then Todd Burns, then Matthew Burns (all for bowling), and now to Cassie Eckert (yes our own Cassie) for Uno Attack. (I don't know if everyone knows about Cassie's win since it came on New Year's Day -- the trophy may be won when a competition is held involving at least four family members from at least two families within the larger family. Since the Klinners visited us over New Year's -- that counts!)
