I had an awesome couple days of Christmas this week. Saturday I celebrated with my family on my stepmom's side. We stayed at the Novi Sheraton and had a terrific time visiting family, eating good food, playing the gift exchange game and just hanging out. When we woke up on Sunday morning, about 30 of us headed to Big Boy together. On Christmas Eve we celebrated with my dad and stepmom and siblings at Tina and Sandi's place. Tina prepared a delicious dinner and again we enjoyed each other's company and exchanged some really nice gifts. My girls and I went to the 10 o'clock candlelight church service before calling it a night.
Christmas morning and day were my favorite. Ella had me awake a lot at night. Of course that wasn't my favorite, but when she kept insisting she could hear Santa Claus and he was waking her, it was so darn cute. The girls woke me and Brian up at around 9 to get to the gifts. Santa brought Brianna a new Nikon camera and Ella got a dollhouse. Then we gave them the gifts from us. They got games, puzzles, dolls, and so much more. I got an absolutely beautiful pair of diamond earrings that I love, as well as an assortment of pj's and boots and more. After the girls gave Brian and I our gifts, my mom came by to give gifts too. Later in the day I took the girls to their grandparents' house and then after that we went to my grandparents' house. It was a lot to do in one day, but neither me nor the girls had any problems. My girls were terrific. They expressed thanks for everything and didn't come across disappointed in anything.
Overall, I feel this Christmas was great! I hope yours was as good!
