Theresa hope you can find something to eat.
 
Heidi - love the watch!

Kristine - He's beautiful! Or is he a she? How do you tell? I love the color.

Vicki - your tree is very pretty.

So who is hitting the after Christmas sales tomorrow?

Heidi - Love the watch! :thumbsup2

Kristine - I agree, the bird is lovely! I don't like birds in general (I'm afraid of them) but I hope your family enjoys the new pet!

Vicki - The tree looks great!

I am going to Macy's and Gap for sure. Kohl's and Marshall's can probably wait.

We had turkey, sweet potatoes, rolls, corn & peas, stuffing, and cranberry sauce for dinner. DH has gone to the dumpster since we don't have trash service again until Saturday.

I had DS help me play Wii Fit for awhile. That darn yoga stuff is impossible! I have to be so careful with my back, and without a mirror I can't really see if my position matches the guy on the screen. I like the step aerobics and the hula hooping!
 

I hope Hunter feels better by morning.
 
We had a great day. Leighanna got too much stuff as usual.
She also got Pixos. She has already made a few things with it. Santa did end up getting Biscuit the dog.:eek: It went down to half price and since it was on the top of her gift list, we caved.
She also got Disney markers and a Disney princess dance kit, a couple of movies, and some games, new pajamas, and boots.
I got a couple of things for my sewing machine and my new cricut cutter.

I have already hauled out several bags of trash and lots of empty boxes. The garbage man is going to love us tomorrow.

Leighanna got up at the crack of dawn, and I felt like I had just got to bed.

The WDW French toast bake was delicious. I also made an egg and sausage casserole. It was o.k., but I don't know if I will make that again.

All in all we had a great day!

Angie wants to head out in the morning to get a few things on the after Christmas sale.

Oh, and we received airline tickets from my In-laws. They just didn't want us to drive their precious granddaughter to Florida in Feb.:laughing: I am thankful, because now I won't be so tired of driving! So now we are booked with Southwest Airlines with a very early flight. More time at Disney!:banana: :banana:

Have a great night all!

The best gift I have is all of your friendship! I wouldn't trade that for anything!:goodvibes

now that is an awesome gift.
 
Can't wait to see what you make!

now I just need to figure out how to use it. I went to a private school. So no home ex class. SO I have never used one before.


The girls got some clothes from my parents a movie each, a baby stroller each and other misc. toys.
 
I had planned on heading out tomorrow to get a few things, ornaments for my brother as his birthday is in march so I get him an ornament 50% off. I want to check a few other things as well.

But around 1pm I started having sinus drainage and just over all achy, I so hope it goes away soon.
 
Nick just headed to bed, complaining of stomach cramping :headache: I knew that this was not going to be the best Christmas ever, but geeesh.


I've loade all 3 mp3 players with lots of songs. My SIL had a ton on her computer so I copied those. Now I'm trying to learn how to add photos and maybe, just maybe a movie. We'll see how it goes. Hunter is resting now. :wizard:
 
So today was a wacky Christmas. We got up, had breakfast. Did some cleaning and other food prep. Then my Mom and Grandma went to the hospital to see my Grandpa. He is still not doing that great and his cancer has spread to his lungs and liver. I stayed home since I am sick.

My brother and I made our late lunch of steak, and tomato, shrimp compote with pasta. We also had pineapple upside down cake and pecan pie. After lunch we cleaned up and eventually opened presents.

Then we watched the xmas parade.

About quarter of 7 my cousins and uncle came. We ate our dinner of ham and turkey sandwiches and other cold munchies and desert. My other Aunt and my Uncle to be showed up before we were finished eating, so they ate as well. Then we opened more gifts, played with the train, and then the Wii fit. Everyone is gone now, but Grandma is staying here for the night, she will go home tomorrow.

Tomorrow it is back to work. Although I am not ready to go back to work.

It looks like most of you had a good Christmas. Those of you who are sick or have sick kids, I hope they feel better soon.
 
I just got off the webcam with my mother, sister, niece & nephew. It was awesome. They are now talking to my brother and nephew in Japan. Chuck & I have to find some software where we can all talk at once.

We are looking for some, too. Skype you can talk all at once (we had 4 houses on today, I'm sure you can do more), but not video conference... that is only compatible with 2 accounts at a time. I'm glad it worked out!
 
We had a great, but utterly exhausting day! We woke the girls up at 7 and did Christmas here (toys, videos, books, etc for them; Melting Pot GC, Wii games, books, Pandora birthstone charm, board games, etc for me; Wii games, tie chain, CDs & DVDs, Photo frame, etc for Kyle). By about 9:15 we were at my parents' for brunch, and visiting with the extended family. Lots of baked goods, cash and restaurant gift certificates :thumbsup2 We chatted with our family around the world in the afternoon, then came back here to start cooking.

As we were picking up and cooking, a friend/colleague of Kyle's who couldn't make it home for Christmas :( visited for a couple of hours and brought gifts, then my immediate family came around 5:30. We ate entirely too much, played some games, and they just left. We got so much more loot I don't even know where to put it :faint: Lots more board games and a video game each (can you tell where our interests lie? :rotfl:), some Christmas decor, etc and - of course - more toys for the girls. They are just now starting to play with all the things we got before they were born! I think a lot of this stuff won't be opened right away :rolleyes: They were much more interested than we expected, though, in everything they opened -- it was a lot of fun! :lovestruc

I'm glad it sounds like Christmases overall were a hit :goodvibes:

Keep your fingers crossed that Kyle doesn't get called in tomorrow so we can all relax a bit, before the inlaws invade on Saturday for the rest of Christmas :headache: :rolleyes1 (I can't complain, we usually get spoiled even more.... (wow, i'm pretty sure none of us should ever really complain about much :blush:))

Have a great night! I hope you all had great time, or are still enjoying time with your families!

I don't think I'm going out tomorrow, for the first Dec 26th I can remember. I just don't need any Christmas decor, wrapping paper, HDTVs .... :teeth:

I can't wait to see more pictures! Goodnight..
 
I won't have time to shop tomorrow although I think my mother is planning to hit JcPenney's at 5:30 am. I'll go out when things hit 75% off or more ;)
