a very Bakke/Bauer christmas

so, despite the fact that i did NOT attend high school in stillwater, i am still allowed at the annual christmas reunion at angie's parents' house. which is very handy, because i get to see some of my favorite people all in one holiday extravaganza, complete with beef sausage, spreadable cheese, karaoke and other midwestern favorites. not only that, but everytime i sleep at a bakke household, i have the pleasure of sleeping on some of the world's best air mattresses. that family seems to top themselves every time i sleep over, and this year was no exception.

plus, i even managed to make it to stillwater without dying, even though there had been a massive blizzard and it was CRAZY windy. i swung by the bauers' and picked up emily and lucy and then we began the trek out to the middle of nowhere to casa de bakke.
