Christmas Highlights

What a wonderful Christmas! I think I can honestly say THE BEST ONE so far. It was hectic leading up to it and on Christmas Eve I thought my head was going to explode, but as the evening came and we enjoyed a wonderful dinner at our friend's house, it all came together. The kids didn't wake up until 8 am and we didn't go out until 8:30 am. The boys all slept on our floor since they would have to pass by the family room to get us and see everything if they slept in their room. Santa brought each of the kids three gift including a Creepy Crawler Oven, Star Wars Legos, sippy cups, and dinosaur puzzles. The grandparents in Cali sent funny hats from Alice in Wonderland and Dr. Suess along with the DVDs to go with them. We adopted at least five new WebKinz and I am sure there are more adoptions in our future. And, yesterday we came back from Cincinnati where we stayed with cousins karaoking to High School Musical 1 & 2 and jumping on their new jumping pit in the basement. I loved singing the duets (I was always Ryan) with my sister in law (she was Sharpay)! Well, 10 pounds later...it has been a nice Christmas Season and I feel ready to move on. I am usually sad to move, but this year I am ready. In fact, today I started my New Year's Resolution a little early and jumped on the elliptical and plan on continuing way in to the new year. Something had to been done because we just had too much great food to eat for the last 2 weeks. I am not complaining, just reporting. So, Happy New Year to all and to all a good night.
