ChRiStMaS DaY

After opening presents at home with Haiden and Lily. We ventured in the snow storm to Michael's parents for Christmas with his family. We did not have our usual family get together with his extended family this year. And Mickey was in the hospital the 23rd having surgery. She got home Christmas Eve feeling OK. Michael's entire family was at his parents except Tyler who was with his dad. It is always nice to see Jeremy and Stephanie. We miss them throughout the year!

We all did the usual stuffing of faces then got to the opening of the presents. Practical gifts seemed to be a theme this year. I got some cushions for our kitchen chairs. They are chocolate brown and comfy. Michael got some cooking utensils, and the best gift of all was the gift certificates for groceries.

Each of the kids got toys and money. With the money from Uncle Jim and everyone else who gave us money we bought the kids a Wii. Even Lily loves the Wii and as soon as she walks downstairs she says "a Wii Wii a Wii Wii." She is in heaven once the Wii remote is in her hand even if the game console is not even on.

WE HAD A GREAT CHRISTMAS DAY!!!
