Christmas

Christmas Eve was spent visiting at my grandmother's house for a little while and then having dinner at my in-laws. It was a great night. My brother-in-law, Rick, entertained us with stories, and it was great chatting with my sisters-in-law. All the cousins hung out and played pool or Rock Band. While we were there, it started to snow. We were going to have a White Christmas, afterall.



On Christmas morning, we woke up very early to see what Santa had brought. I have to say, the ole fat man was good to everyone this year. Hankadoo got his Nintendo DSi, and was a very happy little boy. Santa also brought him a remote control truck that PJ spent more time playing with than Hank. He chased everyone around the house with it, and thought it was hilarious to see us jump. Boys never outgrow the need for toys on Christmas.





After drinking our coffee, and opening our presents, we bundled up and went to Mom & Dad's for our Christmas Day celebration. Christmas Day is always spent at their house. We get there around 9am, and usually leave around 11 that night. It's a day filled with family, food, stories, and being together. We open presents (one at a time so everyone can see!), we eat until we are about to pop, we play games, we tell stories, and laugh until our sides hurt.

It really is the most wonderful time of the year..........
