Christmas at Our House

Christmas was wonderful as always, Kory took off wed and thurs, so he was home most of the week, he built me some much anticipated/needed shelfs in our foood storage room. On Christmas Santa brought the wii (and as always TONS of candy) for our family to enjoy... Mom and Dad got Gage his DS, and just to be fair Broc got a Game Boy, Macy got a "my first doll house". The funnest part was we took the kids shopping to get each other gifts and that was fun to see how excited they got to have the presents opened from each other. the present I ordered for Kory never made it for Christmas, so it gets to be his Birthday, Christmas, Valentines present.... I ordered him a Garmin Rino before Thanksgiving and it is still on backorder, oh well he'll get it sometime. Kory got me some new earrings. After that we went over to Grandma and Grandpa Heslops to talk to Nick who is serving in New Zealand. From there we went to Grandma and Gramdpa Haroldsen and had a light lunch and opened some gifts. From there we went to Ryan and Ambers for our Grandpa Joe Christmas, and dinner. After that the day was done so we finally went home and got in bed(Macy efinatly needed it)!! Good thing the next day was Saturday so we could spend some time and recoup from Christmas right... No Saturday night Kory's family was coming to our house for their Christmas dinner/party. So Saturday was spent busily cleaning up the mess that was made the prior day, and setting up tables and chairs, cleaning bathrooms, washing dishes, etc. That night everyone came and had a good time, there was plenty of room and food for everyone, and the present exchange worked perfect in our basement! Sunday we were finally able to relax and enjoy our Christmas!
