I skipped Thanksgiving and went right to Christmas because our experience with Thanksgiving was pretty miserable. We tried to go to Washington and hit a huge blizzard getting us trapped in a town that had nothing and had to stay overnight and then the next morning our truck was so frozen we couldn't even start it for 4 hours...then the weather continued to be bad and was going to stay that was so we drove the 6 hours back home to have Thanksgiving with my mom bless her heart. We were all pretty disappointed.
Anyways, Christmas was so much fun, we had my sister and her husband and daughter come here and we had a blast, seeing all three girls wake up that morning was so fun. I remember being that way when I was little but as a parent I just sat back and watched there excitment grow as they continued to open more presents. There is something really special about watching your kids smile that makes the day all worth it. The girls really wanted baby turtles for Christmas so Rodger and I set them up...they are really smelly and dirty but it's better then a dog or a cat for our place and they love them. I forgot to even get a picture of them...that's wierd. Anyways then we got them these digital camera's that are water and brake proof which they love so between those two and all the fun toys in between the girls came out pretty good!
