Karen, glad to hear you are feeling a tad bit better and that all your presents are now finally wrapped! We did our gift exchange tonight since my sister will be going to KY tomorrow with her fiance to visit his family.

Marilyn... you sure hit the jackpot with all that Beth sent you. She is such a sweetie isn't she?

Okay I am sitting here twiddling my thumbs. Luis went off to sing at the midnight mass and with the roads being so terrible I want to wait up for him. So I am blasting my favorite CDs and just hoping my sweetie will be home soon

 

[Meriweather]

WOW!! Marilyn, that is quite a haul. Beth done good!!

Karen...glad you are feeling better and hope that trend continues.

And we did our annual new jammies for CE........it really isn't very fun except for DD I found the perfect ones for her. They are space bottoms with moons, stars and planets (she wants to work for NASA) and the top is blue and says Space Cadet....lol...so fitting!!

And now it is time to play Santa and fill some stockings and go to bed.....so..

 

[Poohshoney]

To all the ya yas and the lurkers, peace and goodwill to all.

Roland's feeling a bit better - we're going to the inlaws. MIL cried when I rang to tell them.

Take care, love to you all!!!

 

[jldriscoll]

Have a safe journey Carol!! Sounds like you coming is Roland's mom's gift this year

Glad all is well with my friends here.

Glad your're feeling better Karen and Marilyn, that was quite a nice gifty box you got there.

Betty, did dh make it in safe and sound? How about you Elaine? Luis make it home ok?

Nancy, I did some training with NASA through GS this fall. I just got my certification in the mail that I can train others in the Solar System program they developed. Neat stuff!!! DD will look cool in the jammies!

So, I won't go into detail about my Christmas Eve....lets just say, not as bad as last year, not as good as Jodie's encounter. I swear pride makes some people do the most hurtful things!

We are all waiting on Emily to get up to open presents!!! PAige has been up since 2 am!!!! I layed in bed for about 20 min trying to decide whether to go down and make her go back to bed or let her be. In the end I made her lay down on the couch, stop playing with the cats, watching ACS and eating Gobbstoppers fromher stocking

WE GOT SNOW LAST NIGHT!!!! It's so pretty here this morning! Not so much that driving will be difficult later I think. THat's good.

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!!

Merry Christmas Everyone!!!

Well the kids got up at about 7:00 and opened up their gifts. They are now playing until we have to get ready to go to the ILs. Since we are going away dh and I didn't get anything for each other. We may buy each other something when we get to the World.

I just turned around and Ryan has EVERY gift except his telescope open and ALL over my living room. Oooops spoke too soon he just went to get the telescope.

Carol have a safe and wonderful trip to see MIL and FIL. Sounds like they are sooooooooo happy you are coming.

[helenabear]

Good morning all! Making this quick so I can get a few things done this morning before going to my dad's to cook

Carol, glad that Roland felt well enough to go... I am sure they were estatic!

Yes, Luis got home okay. He was home at about 1:30 or so this morning so I am not terribly awake today.

Maggie, that was so sweet!

To the rest of you, I hope you have a wonderful day today! We have a small dusting of snow on the ground today and we might get (if we are lucky) and inch more. Merry Christmas everyone!

Hi everyone!
Merry Christmas!!!
Just had a minute & wanted to stop by. I hope Santa was good to all of you! I'm watching the WDW parade & wishing I was there.
I'll ketchup with you all a bit later!
Merry Christmas!!!

 

[CookieGVB]

MERRY CHRISTMAS, YA-YA's!!!!!

 

[lvs_eeyore]

We are back from the ILs. We had a wonderful time. It was just MIL and FIL. The kids got lots of nice toys. We went out to lunch and I ATE OUT!!! Im not feeling bad either. I had poached shrimp as an appetizer, mahi mahi as an entree and chocolate cake for dessert!!! Xanax and anti-nausea pills are a good thing LOL. Dh even said he was proud of me because he didnt expect me to eat a thing.

 

[Meriweather]

Sorry, I'm so late. I tried and tried this morning....but I was locked out

I hope everyone had a wonderful day!

Karen, glad that the food went down okay today

Well, we got a load of new DVDs and they want to watch one of MINE, so I guess I will go join in.
Be back later.

 

[lvs_eeyore]

I was just thinking that I bet Jodie is IN THE WORLD right now enjoying a wonderful Christmas dinner!!! Im so happy for her!!!!

We just had the most wonderful dinner of Honey Baked Ham, Sweet Potato Casserole, and Green Bean Casserole. We have a turkey breast and mac and cheese and broccoli rice casserole for tomorrow nights dinner. We were supposed to take all this over to my inlaws but they decided they wanted to eat out so we have TWO dinners out of one holiday celebration dinner LOL. We are going to have ham left over till the cows come home LOL.

 

[helenabear]

Hi all... I am back and my family has finally left for the day! I am happy because I am a bit tired after waiting up so late for Luis last night and I wound up doing all the cooking at my dad's house. No one asked me to, but when I found out that no one else was making anything else, I just hopped right into it and did it all myself. It worked for me

Day was pretty good. The only bad thing is that I ate some spicy Chinese last night and it really didn't sit well with me so I didn't pig out like I could have on the food. No big deal because I am sure in a day all will be good and I can get back to the left overs my dad has

Karen, glad to hear your stomach is treating you better than before I hope it continues that way!

Nancy, good to see you. I was completely 100% locked out this morning right before I had to leave so it wasn't just you!

Hi there CookieGVB! Merry Christmas to you too!

Jay, Santa was good to me this year and I am very happy with all the wonderful and thoughtful gifts I got. I didn't get a chance to watch the parade this morning (I was cooking) but hope to later today or tomorrow

Jodie is probably down there by now and having a wonderful time... I hope she has a blast for all of us

Merry Christmas everyone

 

[Meriweather]

Hi...very quiet today in the lodge.

Well, dinner is over, the leftovers packed up, dishes done.
It was a good day. I feel so spoiled in the present department (and the love of family department too)...but I'm not complaining. I need spoiling now and then don't we all?
Besides, I did all the cooking and clean-up.
We got so many new DVDs and VHS tapes. Between he 4 of us we could watch a new one for days and days.

They are down watching the 3rd movie today....I'm only good for one.
I guess we will be having dessert and attack a game in a few, so I will head off again.

I hope everyone had a wonderful day....and Jennifer...it's OVER!! You made it! Now relax and enjoy.

 

[Meriweather]

I think this will be my 2000th post...so I wanted it to be here....and her is a greeting for you guys that is actually a little fun game.
Love ya all!!

Congratulations on 2000 Nancy!!!!

Love the greeting

Just got back from the IL's. Nice quiet visit. Everyone was tired for one reason and another so we all were glad we didn't have to entertain each other. Just sat and enjoyed watching the girls and listening to christmas music.

The only bad part is they always buy Ed and I things we will never use and open them to test them before wrapping them and make it really hard to return or exchange them. We suggest every year that we just buy gifts for the kids......they never want to. I hate that they waist money on us every year. They really cannot afford it.

Ate lots of yummy stuff and now it's time to watch one of the DVDs I got!

 

[iluvorlando]

Well, Merrry Christmas everyone! Just back from the IL's. Who asked what I was wrapping? Let's see, skates, horse, doll, soccer ball, metal detector, dino monoply, uno game, etc....Kids made out like bandits, as usual!

I am feeling a bit nausous this eve. I hope I am not getting what dh has.

Congratulations Nancy!

Well, off to read the yaya book!

 

[bfeller]

Merry Christmas Ya Yas. Steve got home around 11:45. It was still raining and had not turned to sleet. Thank goodness. We got up to a White Christmas. It was perfect. Snow on the ground but not on the street.

Everyone in the Feller house made out like bandits. Christmas at the SIL's was fine. Everyone was happy. Hope everyone here experienced a nice day.

 

[helenabear]

Hi all! Luis and I just finished watching one of my Christmas presents (Lilo and Stitch). He had never seen it before so he thought it was cute. He just headed up to bed and I am here because silly me had spicy food last night and it takes a day or two for my stomach to get back to normal after "hurting" it like that... so I will be here until I feel "comfortable" enough to go to sleep

Congratulations Nancy on 2000 posts!!! And I loved that greeting!! So cute!

Jennifer, glad to hear that you had a nice day I can imagine the pain of the gift thing with them... at least they mean well

Michele, I hope you are feeling better soon and not catching what DH had. That wouldn't be a fun way to spend your time after Christmas!

Betty, I am so glad that Steve made it okay last night. We had the sleet up here starting about 5 PM or so, so I was a tad worried about him making it home. Glad to hear your day was nice too

I hope the rest of you had a wonderful day
