CHRISTMAS




Here are a few new pictures: Me and Alex, The Boys on Christmas morning before opening presents, and some snow pictures. I would just like to say that our deck is now covered with 3-4 feet of snow. It has been snowing like crazy here and it's supposed to keep on coming down. My mom took the boys out to play in it one day and said Alex would only sled down the hill a couple of times, but then would say "No". I took them outside the next day and I also got him to sled with me, but only 2-3 times. I think it made him very nervous. Damion, on the other hand, loves to sled and had a blast playing in the snow. He's been with his dad for the last few days, but sounds like they have been having a lot of fun sledding and building forts.
Christmas was great and the kids had a lot of fun playing with cousins and opening presents. They definitely made out and I have a box of toys sitting here that need to go to the Salvation Army to make room for the new stuff, once the snow goes away. We also got some cool stuff, like a Bunn coffee maker and a new pots and pans set from my mom. Here was our schedule: We got up and opened presents, went to Aaron's mom's, Vicki and Sonny's, and opened presents, went to my mom's and had brunch (eggs benedict) and then opened presents and hung out for awhile. Damion's dad came to pick him up so he could go to his other grandma's house. Then Aaron, Alex and I went back to his mom's house and we had an awesome prime rib dinner. Fun, yet busy.
While I am writing this Alex is climbing all over me, looking at the pictures, and whispering "snow boot" in my ear. It's cute and annoying at the same time. Oh yeah, I also said a four letter "bad word" starting with SH and ending with IT, and of course Alex had to say it, plain as day, right after me. Oops, need to start watching my mouth, not that I curse very much to begin with. Well, I hope everyone is doing well and had a wonderful Christmas!!! Also, have a great and safe NEW YEAR, 2009 Already!!! Time flies!
