when we got out to fenton we all headed over to try out cici's pizza buffet. melanie and i were quite excited about it even though dave and chadd tried stealing our thunder by telling us it wasn't going to be that good. we all went on a vacation to myrtle beach when i was pregnant with hayden. we found a pizza buffet called the pizza stop that was amazing. all you can eat pizza, salad, pasta, sandwiches and drinks for like 4 or 5 bucks. we went twice. so we had to go and at least TRY cici's.
first of all, the guy at the cash register was totally annoying and every single one of us wanted to tell him to shut up. he talked way too long to tell us exactly what was up on the menu board. the next thing that bugged me was the fact that it's a buffet but they only have one pop machine. so that means there was always a line since only one person could get their drink at a time. that was lame. they also didn't have any labels on the pizza and with things like "macaroni and cheese" or "buffalo chicken" pizza, i really would have appreciated a sign.
but other than those few things, it wasn't too bad. i mean, it's cheap and it was all you can eat. and let me tell you, with a kid like hayden, you need to go to a place like that.
the cinnamon rolls were amazing. i would go and pay the $5 just to eat more of those.
so that was dinner.
we headed back to the c.a.l.m. household and let the boys play awhile while we fed talan who had been stuck in his car seat for about 2 1/2 hours. after awhile the boys came in and they opened presents. hayden got a responsibility magnet chart, a dot to dot book and a flex frisbee thing. talan got some rad guitar robeez shoes and a book.
we got ashton a new video game and a dan zanes cd and lorelei got an old school fisher price cash register and a pinball game. lorelei's gifts were the hit of the evening and the boys wouldn't even let the poor baby play with her own toys. i've known that this christmas was going to be trouble with hayden wanting to play with all the baby toys and last nite proved it even more.
after presents we had some peanut butter pie that melanie made, and was delicious by the way, we yelled at hayden for not listening and then we headed home as we had to be up way too early for hayden to sing this morning at church.
when we started loading the car we realized it was snowing and then heard it wasn't supposed to stop until about 7pm sunday nite. the roads got worse the closer we got to home, but it wasn't horrible. of course that could have been because i wasn't driving.
anyway. a wonder howard/skiver christmas was had by all and hayden didn't even get hurt this year! it was a christmas miracle.
thanks for the rad presents guys! hayden actually ran downstairs today to put all his toys away all by himself just so he could put the magnet on the board!

i had to yell "look it's a reindeer" to get him to look at me. then he was mad that he "missed it":

the boys were playing with lorelei's toys (see the background) so all lorelei could play with was a pull-up:
