It kind of sucks having Christmas on a Monday since I know most of you will be reading this @ work today. I feel for you all since I have to go back tonight. This has been a long fun filled weekend. Lots of food, fun, & family. I did manage to get in a couple of runs to stave off all the extra calories I ate this weekend. I think I ate enough to feed 3 or 4 people. Sunday I got up early & went to a frozen & foggy Sac & ran 15k.
Sunday afternoon we made our trip to Aurora to go to Amber's family shindig. Lots of people, eating, & gift given going on. Mia made a haul & we were wishing we had brought the Subby to get it all home. By the time we had got home my Mom, Dad, Sister, Brother-in-law, & My twin nieces had made it to the house to start cooking & turning my living room in to a storage depot for xmas presents.
Christmas eve is always entertaining with my family. Its been the same for as long as I can remember. My mom wanting to open just one present & my dad refusing repeatidly. As the years have gone on & the twins have gotten older time has softened my old man & he now gives in after about an hour of my mom asking to open just one present.
Christmas morning we got up & moved all the furniture in the living room to make a big open space to pile up all the discarded wrapping paper. I say it every year wrapping paper is such a waste. Mia got more noise making, light flashing, daddy assembling toys than I knew existed. She did get her first bike. A very cool tiny tikes with a seat belt & a handle for her daddy to push & steer. I'll quit boring you with words & share a few pics.
My grandfather made this for me over 30 years ago. Now its my daughter's passed down to her from her grandfather.
