Christmas

What a blur of days jumbled together of intoxicating fun! Started on Sunday, when we meet Dave and Denise at Buca de Peppo (Yum!), then came over here for more fun. Monday we meet Josh and Renae for a Baptist Christmas mass- they sing more then Catholists do- I enjoyed the holiday songs. Afterward we went to Carol and Dick's for the best potato soup ever and opened presents. More fun! Santa must have stayed up late trying to put together the kids big presents- kitchen and roller coaster- a 13 foot long small foot and a half hill with pushcart. Victoria woke us up at her usual time of 6:30; I think she forgot it was Christmas. Both girls loved the roller coaster and have learned (and keep learning) the lesson of sharing. The kitchen gets played with quite a bit too- Victoria's muffins are scrumptious. On Christmas we went to Carol and Dick's again and had turkey and exchanged gifts with the cousins. Six kids in a house sure do make a lot of noise. And to think next year after Renae's hospital visit it will be seven- ah, lucky 7. Wednesday I stayed home and organized where I was going to put all the loot. Today, Thursday, we went to the bounce house with all the cousins. All in all, what a fun Christmas! Hope yours was too.
