Erin's first gift, telling her how to ... remain active ... throughout pregnancy.

OMG Tah! What is it? It was Orlando Bloom looking pensive from Cristine.

Josh does not like Ian, you can tell. He did, however, like the new pens in the bag from Cris.

Jeff is such a Christmasy bundle of joy, even in June.

Loki didn't last very long...

 |
... Although Tiger was the center of attention throughout.

Presents perplex Josh. This is a known fact.

Ian receives a bookmark quoting Winston Churchill from Marie. It probably says something about fighting Nazis bare-handed in an alligator pit.

Cristine crocheted Marie a big scarf! Now that's commitment.

Jeff and Erin got Josh Dead Alive! Now we won't have to rent it again come next Halloween!
Peter Jackson has come a long ways.

Jeff begins to open his present, which was a labor of love from Josh and Marie.

 |
Yep. Josh and Marie made Jeff a little oven.

 |
He's even more overjoyed to find that there's food inside!
A few extra photos of the oven can be found on page two.

Marie got rawhide treats for Loki and Thor.

 |
Thor was much obliged.

Josh got Tah the soundtrack to Quantum Leap, since she much envied his copy.

Josh got Ian "Hitler's Scientists." Maybe Ian will get creative. There might even be recipes in the back.
If you've ever wondered, this is the world as seen from under Jeff's piano. That's right, this is the angle.

Continuing with the Nazi trend, Jeff and Erin also got Josh a copy of "The Illustrated History of the Third Reich." It contains pictures of Hitler looking half-way cheerful.

Marie received a book of cats and quotes from Ian.

Jeff opens something, don't ask me what.

 |
Marie got Erin a hot chili pepper garden she can grow in a window!

 |
Jeff and Erin gave Tah a vanilla-scented candle.

 |
Meanwhile, Marie received a cherry-scented candle.

Josh and Tah jointly got Marie the Dilbert box set, the item she made known to everyone that she wanted.
Photo Credit Ian Malcolm |
 |
She apparently liked it. Or something.

 |
Josh got Jeff Cannibal: The Musical. Now he doesn't have to listen to crappy MP3 rips of the songs.

 |
I guess Erin appreciated Josh's gift to her...
Photo Credit Ian Malcolm |
 |
...The appropriately titled "Walter the Farting Dog."

 |
Ian got Tah the first Vast CD which, judging from her reaction, she really wanted. Way to go, Ian!

 |
Cristine got Ian an assortment of bath products, too keep his skin baby-soft and tender. This led to discussing Ian's morning routine, which was surprisingly similar to that in American Psycho.

 |
Ian reads the instructions.

 |
Ian got Josh the book "Science Fiction of the 20th Century: An Illustrated History." This is his favorite illustration, on page 121, of what is believed to be a dinosaur astronaut hunting Jesus.

 |
Jeff opens Tah's gift...

 |
... The "Worst Case Scenario Survival Game!"

 |
Erin seems fairly aggressive.

 |
But everything's okay when she sees the outcome.
