Ok so I totally suck when it comes to posting and remembering and doing things and well just about everything.. ;) so I should talk about our Christmas shindig right?
I love this time of year as well as just about any other one but Christmas is special and I love to show my family the true meaning of it and also spend money on them! *you have to give me a break cuz I'm running on memory and we all know I'm "special"* We didn't have the princess, she spent this year with her dad, but we do all the full shabam when we can and so we had our full blown Christmas on Christmas eve.
Oooh hold yer horses just a bit there.... It all started at the beginning of December when the man child and I decided not to go over board with gifts and heck we are poor just like ya'll soooo that was that and agreed (bwahahaha my evil laugh) I always try to surprise that man of mine but he always pulls one on me so I decided to stash away some extra money that he had no idea about * Christmas time nice people tip their hairdresser very well... I am sooo thankful for that!*.. so I got him an xbox360 cuz his died a few months back! (super rad wife! I know!!) I hid that bugger in a big BIG box that had Tay's present in it and the man had no idea hehehe. Anywhooo Christmas morning (for us) we waited for the princess to arrive while that man child of mine was making a fantabulous breakfast for his girls (super yummy as always...and hey ladies he CLEANS up his messes!!!) *we are happily married and will always be!* We shoved food in our faces and than sat to open PRESENTS!!!!! First we read and talked about the birth of our Savior and his life and why we celebrate it and how grateful we are for Him. (I love how the man can bring the Spirit into our home, I LOVE him for that) Ok now it's present time.... we let the princess open a few small ones and all that then I pulled out the BIG box...she opened it and found her big makeup box and loved it and then she said.."there is another present in here?" the man looked at me and I just shrugged ;0 hehehe I stood up and grabbed the wrapped gift and took it to the man and put it in his lap all the while he kept saying.."what did you do, woman?" (we have affectionate pet names :)) I just told him to open it and be happy.....well he was happy and I had to tell him I stashed money from him and there was no credit card useage at all!!.... there were more gifts and such but I think you get the picture... :)
~the in laws~ super fun time up there and all the grownup kids ( I am a grownup!!) we got waterproof camcorders... AWESOME!!!! ....ate a huge turkey dinner (read my Thanksgiving post and you'll get all the details) and then we had to get the princess to her dad...
Christmas day we went to church (I love Christmas on a Sunday) then went to me parents house and had tons of fun with allllll the kiddios and uncle Adam loves it!!.... LOVE our families!!
It was a lovely Christmas but I will one day get to go away and be just us on a far away island or mountain or a car that is taking us somewhere where we can make all the memories for a life time!
AND JUST US :) (hopefully)
