Merry Christmas!

Christmas 2008
Christmas is done for this year. I can honestly say I am glad in a way we shoved a lot in the last few days.

One week ago it was my daughters 12th birthday. We had her parties earlier so we just went out to eat. It was good food but the waitress was rather rude!

Friday ~ No school the first Snow day and we did .... nothing and it sure was fun!

Saturday ~ Santa came early so we could have time to play with our new toys.

Sunday~ and that is all we did played.

Monday~ We went to the Columbus zoo and froze.. really really cold weather 10* when we got there. I think the high was 15*~ We had a wonderful time my grandfather won tickets(He is always winning something!) We spent money and tried ice skating that was a lot of fun.

Tuesday~ We had Christmas with Scott's dad and step mom it was nice. The weather not so much freezing rain and a big mess.

Christmas eve ~was spent with My Dad first half day kids got scooters and my Mom the last half we got a Wii! Then the children left at 9 to go to their Dads

Christmas Day ~ Did much of nothing this morning. Went to my grandma/grandpas about noon and the kids were dropped off there they were not in a very good mood and I believe it was because they knew they had to go back until New Years eve.

Please pray that my children return safely. I miss them so much.

Tree

We went out yesterday after school/work and pick out a tree. I do think it is wonderful tradition that we have started. (And all because we got free candy three years ago) Well no free candy this year and we won't go back and get candy there at all any ways they are way over priced. So we found a new place to cut your own tree ok let me say you can cut your own be we did not have to cut the tree down as the ground was a bit frozen but also a bit muddy. (yuck!) The owner came with a chain saw and down the trees went the kids even got to ride back. So glad to have this tradition with my Dad and Nancy! Even if we froze! sorry no pictures maybe someday I will get better taking pictures.
