Christmas!

I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas!! I know we did - we ate a lot of junk food and had a "traditional" Spaghetti and Meatball Christmas dinner! The kids got LOTS of stuff! We spent the night at Mom and Dad's and that's where Santa delivered presents!

Here are some photos (backwards!):

Grandma and Colin - she is showing him a toy that Santa brought!

James is looking at the Hot Wheels that Santa brought!

I am opening my Sodamaker! (I bought it through a charity thing for myself and it's really cool!!)

I won this for Larry (about a week before Christmas) and was able to keep it a secret!! Needless to say, he was VERY surprised to see a Blu-Ray player under that paper!

Colin really seemed to enjoy this flashlight!

We don't have much planned for New Year's Eve ... we will probably rent a movie and put the kids to bed at their regular bedtimes! I bought some Sparkling White Grape Juice, so I am sure we will have some of that. We will spend New Year's Day at Mom's house.

I have registered for two classes and I am trying to get into one more ... I will have to take at least one class in the summer (depending on if I can get the one I am trying to get) and then I will Student Teach in the Fall! The downfall, I have to find childcare for James and Colin. James needs to spend time with other kids, so I am good with finding something for him. But, I got to spend a LOT of time with James (and watch him learn and grow) when he was small. I will miss out on all the a lot of the new things that Colin does ...

Well, I think I am out of things to say and this is a LONG blog with all the pictures, so ... I hope you enjoyed this blog (HI Linda!!)! Have a safe and happy New Year!! :)
