We had a Merry Christmas

Our day started at 7 am. It is a rule...you have to stay in bed until 7 am. The kids were excited at their gifts. Santa brought the family a Wii and the rest of the day was filled with Guitar Hero and Mario.
I made a good turkey dinner. It was a good time with family. I made a turtle cheesecake for dessert, it was great for a first time cheesecake maker. It was a relaxing good time.

When it was all settled down, I went into work for a few hours. It was fun being with friends and of course making that holiday pay. It was a very busy night.
Ya' know what? I love that people ...all shapes and sizes.... people that you would look at and wonder if you would be safe around them...call their moms.

I need to tell you about my thoughtful gifts that were given this year. I broke my mp3 player. I use it to exercise and well if Little Tykes made one-that would be for me. I have missed it.
Matt gave me an ipod (30G). He filled it with pictures of me and my family, my 80s music, and playlist that Jan sent me. LOVE IT! There was a little drama with it. This year the present-passer-outer- read the name wrong and gave it out to another....well...it MINE! Now I am motivated!

Sarah gave me something I rarely ever get...actually I can't remember the last time I was able to....money to spend on me. I big chunk.

Seth made me a beautiful coil mug. I actually drank some water out of it.
Scott got me a very nice present... I'll keep private. NO not what you are thinking.
Hannah enjoyed the candy I got from her. I did too
Emma and Andrew made me beautiful cards with their photos.
