It's the Most Wonderful time of the YEAR!





Nope not Christmas Eve, or Day or Boxing Day but the days between those days and New Years Eve - I just LOVE them. Rich is always home, we don't usually schedule anything for the first couple days after boxing day and we just hang out. We are busy finding homes for all the new stuff, eating leftovers and the boys are exploring all of their new things. It's sooo cozy. We did have a great Christmas. My parents, uncle, brother and neice came over on Christmas Eve and we had a very yummy turkey dinner. We opened presents - Rich spent two hours puting together playmobile - played a game and watched a Christmas movie. It was fun. On Christmas day we got up - Ethan and Aiden not until 8:30 - opened up gifts had an English breakfast and then headed off the Rich's parents for a few hours. There we hung out, played a game and opened up some more presents. We were able to come home for an hour or so - could not believe it but Christian fell asleep on the way home from Maple ridge and slept for two hours. We went to my uncle and aunts' house and ate some delicious appys, opened even more presents and played some games. On Boxing day we went to Rich's sister's house for the late afternoon. I am so ripped that we forgot our camera b/c there were some priceless shots of people playing the Wii and of the boys doing karaoke. Christian would not let go of the mic -thankfully they had too - and would sing right into it if he liked the song - he liked them all but one. The funniest thing was two of Rich's aunts were singing and he sat there with his hands over his ears! Those were good days but nothing beats the relaxing that comes after them. I think the kids would agree with us!
