'Twas the Night before Christmas

Christmas Eve with the Robnetts! In keeping up with an honored Thilo-Robnett tradition, the two families convened for Christmas Eve. We had scintillating conversation over a delicious, colorful dinner. Then we braved the snowy blizzard outside (13" that day alone, bringing the total to over 4') and headed to Trinity Lutheran Church.After a music-infused service, we (Mom, Dad, Sam, Grandma Thilo, Janet, Rusty, Jess, Ausey, and I) headed back to Buckskin Road for drinks and dessert. Janet made a scrumptious chocolate cake, which went nicely with peppermint ice cream and Bailey's+Kahlua. Finally, we exchanged gifts, and I received a fashion-forward pair of arm warmers. They will definitely come in handy on my bike rides to school on chilly mornings and during class in excessively air-conditioned lecture halls.
