It's been almost a week since my last blog post and we've been on the run pretty much everyday since then. As much as I'm going to miss the Christmas lights, music, tree, the anticipation for Christmas to come, snooping through presents, the goodies and the rest of it, I'm really ready to get back into our regular routine and settle down. Today seems to be a bit back to normal and that's only because we are stuck inside the house with a snow storm happening outside as I write this.
Over all Christmas was really nice. We had Christmas Eve with my family as we usually do. We went for lunch because Mass was at 4:00pm this year. We went to a different Parish then I had been to... very small compared to our church here in town. Amelia was pretty good and Landen was a nightmare - overly tired and extremely irritable. I felt like the entire place had all eyes on us, but my family said it wasn't that bad. Then we went back to my parents house for presents - always a fun time! Christmas day we had our own little Christmas here at our place. Landen wasn't quite into Christmas as I thought he'd be, but it was still a lot of fun. Then we went to Kurt's parents for lunch and more presents. Afterwards to his grandpa's for more food and presents. It was a long couple of days, but a lot of fun.
I made a photo montage below of a few of the Christmas pictures we took. Enjoy!
The last few days since Christmas we've been running here and there for everything that has been going on. There are two birthdays in my family - Emily and my mom. We didn't make it for either, but that's normal. Yesterday we went to RIPS for good ol' chicken with Kurt's family. Grandpa leaves for Texas Sunday for a few months and it's kind of a tradition. Today, we cleaning, laundry, trying to fix the tub (ugh) and relaxing. Hope everyone had a Merry Christmas!

I've been wondering how your Christmas went :0)
Want to hear something funny? There is apparently someone on here with a simular name to yours and I just left her a lengthy comment thinking it was you. OOPS! I felt my face turn red when I realized it was someone totally different and she has no idea who I am. LOL!!!

I'm going to try to make one of our billions of Christmas pics instead of just posting them--Oh, and I'll e-mail you soon, too--But if you have time, fill me in on how everything went for you guys over the holdiays!!
