Christmas 2012

On Christmas Eve, we had dinner at Macayo's and then went out to look at Christmas lights. I thought we had some cinnamon rolls on hand for Santa, but we didn't! Poor Santa had to settle for cookies. But Erin left a note and a nice drawing for him.

We "over-saved" (is that possible?) for our cruise, so we were able to buy a few extra things this year.  We had a pretty good spread on Christmas morning.



 

My parents and my sister came over on Christmas morning and the festivities began! 

After all the presents, we made breakfast and cleaned up the aftermath. We talked to Bob, Sandy, and Annalice in Illinois, and then we went to Rob's parents' house. Both his sisters and their families were there, so we got to spend a lot of time visiting and opening more presents. And there was a nice spread of appetizers & munchies for everyone to graze on.

Since the kids were in school clear up to the 21st, they had two solid weeks to play with all their stuff before going back to school.  Score!
