Our Christmas

I hope everyone had a great Christmas! Our family certainly did. The boys got a TON of stuff! We had a total of 8 Christmas's between Saturday and Tuesday (Nathan had 9 b/c they had a party at school) and they got gifts at all of the places, a lot of stuff at a few of them. Our floor is covered in new toys. I've been washed load after load of new clothes, the book cupboard is overflowing. It's a mess, but it's a lot of fun, especially for the boys! My mom and dad and Dustin's mom and dad spoil them rotten! They spoil Dustin and I, too!

It was great to spend time with family and friends, we got a chance to see some people we haven't seen for quite awhile, always nice this time of year. We even made it to Ft. Wayne to see my Grampy and to Bluffton to my Grandma's. It was sad to be there without my Grandpa this year, but like Nathan said, he was spending Christmas with Jesus. While we were at Dustin's grandparent's on Sunday morning, his cousin Neil, who is serving in Iraq, called and everyone got a chance to talk to him, that was nice!

I got a great present this year, though it is very odd! I've been using a pair of pliers to turn my shower off and on for at least a year now, probably closer to two years. It's a real pain in the butt! When Dustin asked me what I wanted for Christmas, I told him new shower knobs, and I got them!!! I forgot how nice it is to just turn a knob, and when the water starts to get cold, it's so easy to adjust! Also, he cleaned the shower for me, something I despise doing. We're going to get a detachable shower head soon too, which will be really nice for washing the boys. So, I know it's kind of strange to get excited about something like that, but I am!

Again, I hope you had a very merry Christmas, and have a great New Year's!
