I've had a fabulous break filled with such unforgettable moments this holiday season.
I love watching Colin and Landon.....wait... Colin open the presents. You can tell right away if your gift was a hit. Does he want it open right that minute....or does he toss it to the side searching for the next box with his name....or anyone's name for that matter. As long as it has wrapping paper :) I love Christmas morning.
I had to break Mike's tradition of opening all presents on Christmas day. We opened our presents three days before Christmas. I got a little anxious. We did stockings on Christmas Eve. Best presents from Mike - Blue Man Group tickets and Hairspray.
Christmas at Aunt Cheryl's is better when our whole family is there. Then we always have someone to stick by and make fun of all the other family members because our family is so perfect ahaha. It was interesting this year to see which cousins, aunts, and uncles could make a taco with their tongue or touch their nose with their tongue. We do not have a lot of talent. Mike's comment of saying we have too many people in this family when he couldn't find a place to sit to eat left him with stares that could kill the devil from certain family members. Watching Aunt Cheryl play Guitar Hero....priceless.
Blue Man Group was great...minus the fake throwup that landed on both Mike and I.
Allison and Brian were forced to hang out with us...and two hours later Allison and I were done playing Mario Brothers 3.
We got a Wii from Mike's parents. Now I play Mario 3 for hours on my own couch :) It is also fun to watch both sides of parents enjoy playing video games with their children. I don't think mom or dad ever set foot on the powerpad! I have never seen dad play tennis with so much energy!
New Year's Eve was great. Of course Ryan fell asleep. But a little Guitar Hero, Wii, The Singing Bee, Superman dance, The Cupid Shuffle, pigs in a blanket, bruschetta, the ugliest people that live in IL on t.v.= a successful New Year's.
Thankyou all for another great holiday. I love all of you and am looking forward to cooking at Dinner by Design with mom and seeing Altar Boyz with my sistahs. I might turn into that boy band crazy fan again! Oh wait, I never stopped ;)

The best part of the night was when you were trying to sing, "I love the night life" and you said, "The disco....whaaaaaaa!--What is she saying??". You missed it, the next morning dad was trying to play guitar hero...and let's face it..he isn't much of a hero.
