Well, I finally have the time to update my blog with a Christmas/ Holiday post. We were gone from the Monday before Christmas (20th) to the Monday after New Year's (3rd), so while we were gone, there was plenty of fun activities and adventures to report about. I'll start with Christmas Eve. We always do Christmas eve with my side of the family and this year there was only one difference, we held Christmas Eve at my Mom's instead of my Meemaw's. My mom went with an untraditional idea of a taco dinner, so we went with it and it was delicious! After dinner everyone got to open up gifts and man did we have a lot. Lets just say that my kids were definitely taken care of this year. After the kids opened all their gifts, Santa (my pepaw "Paul") stopped by for a visit to give the kids their stockings. Paul was such a wonderful Santa and most of the kids loved him.. all except my child! Eden did great with him as long as he was holding her facing me, but as soon as she took a good look at him, she lost it. Remington on the other hand was terrified from the second Santa walked in the door. He hid out on the couch snuggled up with his new Buzz Lightyear and there was not way we were going to tear him off. Whatever the case, it made for some great pictures.
Christmas day was spent at my in-laws house. My sister-in-law and her family stayed over the night of Christmas Eve as well, so Noah and Cana were there to open presents from Santa and the rest of the family on Christmas morning. That was a lot of fun, even though Remington had gotten sick on Christmas Eve night. He was more worried about having breakfast in the morning than opening all of his presents. Later on that day my other sister-in-law and her family came with some of her husband family as well, along with Ross' Aunt Kim. It was a very relaxed day spent with wonderful family.
Finally when everything settled a bit, Grandma Sue took us and the kids to Incredible Pizza company for some fun. Remington had a blast with his cousins and Eden was so well behaved just along for the ride!
Also new for us this year is a project that Ross and I are in on together that we have coined the 180 project. We started a blog too help hold ourselves accountable. Let us know what you think at http://the180project.com
