I’m a happy girl

Ok so this was my best christmas ever and there is nothing that anyone could have done to make it bad…well ok someone could have but they wouldn’t have 🙂

I hope that eveyone had a great christmas and that you got what you wanted; which I did (I love my parents and the best guy on earth for making that happen) oh yeah and no I didn’t get a horse…well a real one, I got something almos…nah, something better, a LOT better and I am proud to say that YES, I AM a dork and you should have all realized that at the start of this diary.

I ended up not going to bed until early morning, christmas morning and then getting up about 4 -3.5 hours later so that I could be up on time and then I took my parents’ stockings upstairs (yes my family does stockings, I know not everyone does but I love to do them, they are the little presents that people don’t always want to get because of their size, some people think that size matters, please that only matters for one…ok maybe a few things but still 😉  I was then given the job of sorting packages out into piles for everyone and then instead of taking turns (which we had to do before since there used to be around 6-12 people at our normal christmases) we just opened as we saw fit and things went by faster which was nice and not that nice since it left me with dead time which ended up in being myself and the boy taking some plates over to Kerry’s so that she could have them since we got our mother a new set that she had said that she wanted. 

Christmas eve was interesting, we had Kerry, Vince and their 5 kids here, the neighbors from across the street, and a family friend and his wife were over also.  It was fine until Kerry and the loud baby showed up, I love them and all but sometimes things get to be a bit much, I came downstairs with my boy and my two nephews and did whatever down there since it was a lot better.  Once everyone but kerry and her family “the herd” left, we all were downstairs and opened presents from our family to their family which was my mother’s way of not having them over christmas day since it’s too much of a hassle to do it with 13 of us, one a baby that is into everything.  It was nice and once everything was opened we sent the herd packing, put things away, rested for a few minutes and then Molly, my sweetie, and I went to the candle light service at church which starts at 11, we had to stop by Kerry’s first to pick up our two oldest nieces so we were about 10 minutes late, not too bad.  Came home close to 1 and pretty much everyone went to bed, not all of us but most of us O:)  I went to bed a few hours after 1.

We’re going to see about finding a snowmachine rental place so that we can get a poor california boy a chance for some alaskan fun, and who knows what we will do after that, something I’m sure.

Well I need to get to bed, it’s late and I have to be up some point in time in the morning, before 11 😛
