Merry Christmas!

We hope everyone had a wonderful and fantabulous Christmas Eve and Christmas Day!! Archie got both days off this week so Christmas Eve we decided to celebrate! We hit the movie "Bolt" and had a traditional Japanese lunch and we made a mad dash to Walmart right before they turned everyone way for closing to get our Christmas Eve gifts "Wall-E" and "Kung Fu Panda." I made roast chicken and a cheesecake for dinner and we enjoyed the special Christmas spirit by watching both movies and eating yummy food!

Christmas day we got up early and found that Santa had left us special presents in our stockings! He always brings us our favorite cereal and breakfast items as well as candy and a few stocking stuffers! He's so sweet!

Archie received a couple of PC games and a Walmart gift card along with Cap'n Peanut Butter Crunch and Pop Tarts!! Yummy!

I received some DVDs and a book to help me in my medical transcription studies!

For a family gift we bought a used computer from Archie's work that we are revamping so we can play more games and have more storage for more fun pictures and music!! yeah!

The kitties got a big helping of food and catnip from Santa as well! He'd never forget about our babies!

Me ate another turkey whole!

I also took my kitties out to play in the snow that had fallen overnight...Wolfy wasn't too fond of the stuff, but Frodo loved it!

After our gift-opening we headed up to our friends' house Sarah and Matt. They cooked the turkey while we brought up rolls, taters, and lots of dessert! We played games and watched a movie and had a great time!

It was a bit scary at the end of the day since it was a blizzard outside! But we made it home after almost a two hour commute that should only take less than an hour! I did a lot of praying and thanking!

Christmas is a special time to reflect on what the Savior has done for me in my life and to reflect on all the wonderful family and friends I have in my life as well! So a big Merry Christmas to all of you!

  1. Merry Christmas to you guys!!! Looks like Santa was nice to you! Santa didn't get to fill our stockings too much cause he (she) was snowed in for days and couldn't finish shopping. But we had a great Christmas too and also got to drive while it was snowing AND skid all over the freeway on I-84, nice! Take care.
