It's the last day of Christmas break and the kids and Brad are watching the Colts game in the living room. I'm catching up on blogging and laundry. Brad's going to church tonight and the kids and I are skipping to get ready for school tomorrow, I'm ready to have our routine back! This post is actually two Christmases but really only one! For the second Christmas in a row, my sister and her family have traveled to Baltimore to spend the holidays with my brother-in-laws family. So on Christmas morning once the kids unwrapped gifts at our house, we headed to my parents new home to celebrate with them. My maternal grandparents and my aunt and cousin came too and we made a huge breakfast and spent the entire day together. The kids opened their gifts from my parents, grandparents and aunt/cousin. They received movies, games, Colts towels, a baseball to finish a collection they had started, sports t-shirts from their fav. teams, and tons more. Once we opened gifts, the kids went outside and enjoyed the snow for about 30 mins. It was freezing up at the new house, it seems like it's 10-15 degrees cooler up at my parents house! Later in the day, my aunt fried chicken and we ate dinner together. There was enough food for an army. We played games and the kids talked their grandma into letting them stay the night!On Thursday, December 30, we celebrated Christmas with my sister and her family at their house. My grandparents and my aunt and cousin came over as well. We had vegetable soup and chili and my grandma fried her famous corn bread. The kids opened their gifts from my sis., b-in-l and my nephew. The kids played Justin's new XBOX 360 and Kinect he received for Christmas. They were in hog heaven. Some of the adults played a kids game called Head Banz, we had a blast! Jordan spent the night with Justin and Jacob went home with my parents for the evening. We had a wonderful time at both Christmases, we have only 1 left! This Saturday we are having Christmas with my Grandma Knight and the rest of my dad's family. Then it is over for almost another year!
