I love Christmas Eve. It is my favorite day of the year. It was always special when I was growing up. It still is. The weather was crap today. It rained all day and we were not able to put out the luminaries this year, but it was still a great day.
I did some errands this morning. I had to get a few things to take to my mom's tonight. People were crazy out and about, though. I was really glad to get home.
I did take a nap this afternoon. I'm thinking my blanket will be great to take naps with once I get to use it. I may have actually bought it but Michael says I cannot have it until Christmas day. Oh well, that's tomorrow. I have a feeling I'm going to have to share it with Abby some, but it's big.
Tonight was Christmas at my mom's. We had good food, yum! Then opened presents. I got a black long sleeved t-shirt, a gold sweater, a tri-pod for my camera, EZ combs, Mama Mia DVD. I think we all got pretty spoiled tonight. Michaela was thrilled with her Apples to Apples game and her dress making set. Caleb loves his robot and Bakugan.
Griff got an Xbox for Christmas so the kids were given gifts that had two Xbox games in them. It was funny when they opened them because they both said, "We don't have an Xbox." Then, Griff pointed out the one he has and let them know that those were their games to play when they were over there at their house. Of course, Caleb had to try his out right away. He loved it.
Michaela, mom, and Karen started playing Apples to Apples. I ended up being judge for that. It's a cute game and can be really funny.
We came home around 8:45 or so. The kids got ready for bed, but watched some of 50 Frist Dates with Michael and me. They went to bed around 9:30 or so. Michael and I finished watching the movie and then put out the presents and stockings from Santa.
