Our Holidays



We had a wonderful Christmas! As you can see the kids got alot of great stuff. These are the before and after photos. Emily woke us all up at 5:30am to open presents. Pete says he heard her up at 4:00am and at least she waited awhile to get us up.The first time in nine years she woke up before dawn. I was very tired but excited to watch the kids open gifts. By about 6:30 we finished opening everything.We spent Christmas day indoors all day it was raining and yucky out. We had a small family meal and went to bed early .Getting up at 5:30 makes little kids cranky. On Christmas Eve we were invited for fondu at my friend Heathers house. That was fun and intresting. There was cheese and vegies ,beef and shrimp and chocolate and fruit. It was the first time we had ever had fondu. I enjoyed it, although one could starve if you had to eat it for a meal. It takes a while to cook meats.
We are planning to spend New Years Eve at home. I don't think I can make it to midnight. I'm usually asleep by 9:00pm. We'll have to see. I'm going to take a nap maybe that will help. The kids aren't intrested in staying up. And we don't get any of the New Years Eve specials on TV because of the time difference. So it's almost like any other day. I haven't made any New Years resolutions. And don't plan to. I never stick to them. I just want us all to be in great health and happy. I hope all of you have a prosperous New Year!
