X-mas, Oregon, and a brand new year

SO last week we went to Oregon to see jeanette and eric and #17. it was betsy and anna's first trip to the "socialism state", so there was much to see and do. It rained the whole time we were there so we didn't really see or do too much. Mainly we went carpet and tile shopping(J&E are building themselves a clubhouse on the back of their house.) We did go see the big trees and the coast("Visit Medford, it's really close to california")though. We had to stay with a complete stranger, so future visitors beware. I suppose next time we will book our hotel in advance. We were also forced to eat and pretend to eat breakfast. Everyone in oregon is very strange, and it's hard to describe how. The funniest part of the trip for me was when Eric's dad[Ed(Eric's dad) and Jeff(eric's step-brother) drove down from Idahoe to help tile the bathroom] announced that his wife had sent a "big lasagna" with him for us to eat. He then went out to his car and returned with a Stouffer's brand Lasagna in a yellow box. I guess it just wasn't what I expected...

Anyways we really did have a very nice time on the trip and it was really nice to see eric and jeanette.

Betsy had to go to work today which is the dumbest thing ever.

Todays word of the day is nihilarian. What does it mean?
(the winner of this year's word of the day will get a prize, I promise.)(And if you look it up in a dictionary you are not very nice, but then again I guess you could be the first to look it up so maybe that is ok)
(If it is pronounced other than how you think I would naturally pronounce it then you should tell me how to pronounce it correctly so I don't sound like a dope --the calander does not tell me.)( that goes for future words, as I clearly can pronounce THIS word just fine.)
