Christmas

Post Christmas greetings!!! I hope you all had a wonderfully blessed Christmas and got spoiled rotten :0) Just a little update from last week:

Our Christmas was wonderful. Not enough time with family but it never is. Our oldest daughter and her hubby came down Tuesday night, so we had a late dinner and stayed up opening gifts and playing with stuff. They left Wednesday before noon so they could make their flight to Phoenix to spend Christmas with her mom. Meanwhile, our travel plans for Christmas Day got scrubbed due to the weather…supposed to have a BIG storm that day…so we checked the road reports, the radar, called family to check the weather there, only to arrive at the conclusion that it would be better to wait until Saturday to go visit. Waited for snow…played games….waited…watched a movie….waited…got a good laugh from me trying to snowboard on the Wii Fit (I so suck at that - LOL!!) ….nothing….then it rained…. RAINED! Ugh!!! (Come to find out that about ½ hour north of here it was snowing like a sonofagun all day) But then along 7-ish the wind kicked up pretty good and the temp dropped. We woke up to tons of snow on Friday. Shoveling was brutal….ouch. Went up to Saturday to my in-laws…opened gifts (Chris got a .22 from his grandpa…needless to say he’s one happy camper!) and visited. Ahhh….so nice to see everyone. Did I mention we “pug sat” while kids were gone to Phoenix? Yes, we got to take care of “Benny the Pug” while they were gone…cute little guy. Full of all kinds of silly noises. He snores :0) And into everything! It was like having a toddler in the house…can’t take your eyes off him for a second or he’s off snooping someplace. Our cats weren’t too broken up to see him go home last night though…they were not a fan of “Benny the Pug”. Go figure ;0) I hope to get around to dumping my camera tonight so I will have some pics to share.

Have a great day and a safe and happy New Year’s Eve!!!
