I love this picture, I am talking to the girls and they were just smiling and laughing at me :)
Well for the first Christmas for as long as I can remember.. we had a nice white Christmas. Our original plans were to spend Christmas Eve in Iowa with my family, however, due to a batch of flu and Old man winter... we had to change our plans. So Brian and I bought some groceries and stayed home. We watched Polar Express and the snow fall... a nice relaxing evening. Christmas day we slept in , I made muffins and then we opened presents and again...watched the snow fall. It was my wish to have our family Christmas on Christmas day and just stay home and be together... so secretly I was more than happy to stay home...our original plans for Christmas day were to go to Brian's parents,but we didn't go anywhere.We saw several vehicles get stuck...even 4 wheel drive!
As far as gifts we went simple this year. The girls got two outfits, hairbows, and eventually highchairs...when I get them ordered. I got Brian clothes and Mizzou Basket ball
tickets..but the surprise was ruined when they came in the mail...early...when I didn't expect them to. I tried to lie and say my friend had them sent here for her husband but... he knew...oh well. Brian bought me the Ugg boots I was desperately wanting...I go into homes for a living so I am always out in the snow so I thought I needed something to keep my feet warm. Overall a very nice Christmas...though I do miss my family. I worry about my Dad being alone on the holidays,but I call him frequently. Someday I hope to be able to have him live closer to us. Thats all for now. Hope you all had a Merry Christmas...if anyone even looks at this blog other than myself! Ha!
Happy Birthday Jesus!!!
It sounded like a nice holiday all cozied up with the girls...love the Christmas pictures too!
