We spent Christmas in Colorado with Greg's family. It was fun watching his little brothers and sisters open gifts. They were so excited about everything. We had a fabulous dinner Christmas day and then spent the rest of the night playing games and Guitar Hero. Turns out there are a few dancers in the family and some wish-they-were-musicians.

Soda Pop Stoves
On campus each semester the Outdoor Activities program does a few Survival Clinics where they teach you skills to, well, survive. Greg and I went to one last Thursday and made these really cool little stoves to put with our emergency preparedness stuff. You can use rubbing alcohol, the stuff used to get water out of your gas tank, and even hand sanitizer as fuel. They stay lit for about 10 minutes, just enough time to boil a small cup of water :D I thought these were such a cool idea! Instructions on how to make them can be found at backpacking.net/makegear. (sometime I'll ask Greg how to make those little links to click on)
