Merry Christmas

I can't believe its over.....all the shopping, cooking, planning, wrapping, for the past month and a half, and its over just like that....whew! Why is it that the older you get, the faster life wants to go by. It's not fair....when you finally reach the age where you really appreciate things for what they are, you barely have time to really sit back and enjoy it!

Christmas was a lot of fun. We started off Monday night with the Collins/Cooper Family Christmas party. We got to see a lot of my cousins and now their kids, and catch up on old times. Wednesday was Christmas Eve and we spent the evening at my parents house with a wonderful meal and of course presents.

Christmas morning everyone came over to our house to open presents. Granny and Pa-paw came over, and Pa-paw made his wonderful pancakes. Nanny, Papa, and Uncle Sean came over too. They helped the kids set up a few of their new toys and then went back home to open their presents. We had lots of yummy food for breakfast, including an awesome French Toast Bake!! We opened presents and stayed in our jammies all day playing with all of our new Toys. Uncle Aaron and Becky stayed over all day too, and played and watched movies, and just hung out. What a perfect laid back Christmas Day!!!

We had a yummy christmas dinner and continued hanging out and playing with the new toys. Josh and I got a Nintendo Wii for Christmas, so we all had fun playing the Wii. Josh got a little too into his Wii bowling game, and he almost took out the Wii, our TV, and our Glass Doorwall. Lucky for us, his knee got the worst of it, and everything else made it through!
