Christmas 2009
We have a great Christmas. We were thinking about going on a hike on Christmas Eve, but we ended up not going. We weren’t feeling the greatest and it didn’t seem like a good idea. We did have our Christmas Dinner on Christmas Eve. For dinner we had: ham, rolls, honey butter, squash, cheesy potatoes and I don’t remember what else. It was very tasty.
After dinner we had a family home evening about the nativity. It really great. Milo was super excited about Christmas. I was lucky to even get him to sleep.
Milo woke up at 6am and got us up. We got Holly up and she was super grouchy. We got Scott’s family on the webcam and started the festivities. Holly got a scooter, a stuffed Boots and Backpack from Dora. They both got an easel with a chalkboard, white board and paper. Milo got a new bike, and a few DS games. Holly didn’t want to do anything but write on the chalkboard. We did finally convince her to open her stocking and the other gifts. Both kids got a DVD or two. Holly got a cash register which she enjoys playing with.
After we opened gifts, we had Christmas breakfast. We had sausage, rice pudding, almond bread and hash browns.
For Christmas dinner, we went to our neighbor’s house. We had a great time. We took a fruit tray and dessert (cake balls and cookies). We had sandwiches, soup, chips, dips, and a veggie tray. The kids enjoyed playing with their friends. We had a great time.
I’m sorry, I didn’t take any pictures. Scott has them and he will post them when he has the opportunity.
