Christmas 2010 was great. We decided to stay home and not travel this year. What a blessing. It was nice to relax and be in our own home.
On the Eve of Christmas Eve we went to the Huse's house to enjoy some delicious food and friends. There were like 15 adults and 10 kids. Lots of fun. The children were worn out, but safe since we hired a babysitter to sit upstairs in the playroom and referee.
Then on Christmas Eve we ran errands and took it easy. I cleaned up the house some and wrapped presents. It was a low key day.
Christmas morning was fun. Peyton refused to wake up. At about 8:45 a.m. we went in to try and get her up. She rolled over and said "NO." Just like Mommy :) Bristol, however, was up and not really enthused by the presents. She was excited that Daddy was on Skype. So, she entertained him until Peyton woke up. When Peyton did wake up she was super excited to see Daddy on the computer and to get her Rapunzel doll. That was the big gift this year. Bristol and Peyton played all day with their gifts. They enjoyed every single one of them. Thank you to all of our friends and family for all the gifts. We actually just finished opening all the gifts today. The girls took it easy. They'd open a few and then play for an hour and then go back to opening. We also had AnnMarie and Emily over for Christmas dinner (Boston Market style.) That was fun. The girls are starting to get along together much better - that's WWB.
Merry Christmas to everyone. We sure are hoping that we can spend Christmas as a complete set next year with Rob being home. We will also find out next week what our fate will be. Keeping our fingers crossed that we stay in Fayetteville especially since we just refinanced both houses.
Looking forward to Grandma (Mom) coming to visit on Thursday. Yay! It will be nice to see her and for her to spend some quality time with the girls.
