Fun with Family

Christmas was so much fun!! Everyone came home except Matt and his family...Matt had to work =( We sure did miss him!! I was so glad everyone made the sacrifice to come out!! Mom and Dad did so much and really went above and beyond to make Christmas wonderful!! We had fun sledding, playing cards, playing the Wii, playing the PS3, watching movies, shopping and just hanging out. We tried a new tradition and did a white elephant gift exchange this year. My mom bought all the gifts and they were great things that we all wanted. I think one of the more popular items was a mini remote controlled helicpoter that Evan, Bill and Aaron were fighting over. Tat got it in the end and gave it to Aaron=) Evan ended up with a cool crossbow, Sarah traded a pedicure set for Kelly's Webkinz=) I traded Alyssa an Olive Garden gift card for two reaaly cool mugs and some hot chocolate. It was a lot of fun and a tradition we'll probably keep. We didn't do our traditional Christmas Eve dinner this year or our big Christmas breakfast and I think that we all really missed that even tho' the cinnamon rolls and hot cocoa were awesome!! We did have dinner on Christmas day and it was delicious!! Overall it was a great week and I hope everyone else had as much fun as I did!!
