On the night before new years eve I had a slumber party with my sister Cynthia and her family. My niece Liberty and I planned it along time ago when I went to visit them in Arizona. We had dinner, watched the Muppet Christmas Carol and had hot chocolate. The boys left to see a late movie and the girls stayed and played a game and talked. It was very fun. The next day we had breakfast and hung out. Afterwe ran a few errands and went to visit with my Dad. Then it was time to primp for family pictures. My friend Jessica agreed to take my families picture- I tried to warn her but she still agreed : ) You see, I have a big family. I have five sisters, four brother in laws, my husband, my Mom, my Dad, six nephews, and four nieces. She did a great job though! I cant wait to see how they turn out! I know they"ll be great though because she's great. I call her my photographer- if you need a family picture, baby pictures, couple pictures, or anything she's great and affordable!
Later that night I went to my sister Andrea's to have dinner, play games and welcome in the new year. It was very fun but also very filling. The giant bowl of M&M's I think was my downfall. I had a great but very late night. Happy New Year!!!

Christmas
For Christmas this year I was really lucky to have all my family in town. We got together on Christmas Eve to have dinner together and to open one present (P.J.'s). I got Will John Wayne pajamas pants and he got me blue fuzzy pajamas with cute polar bears on it.
We were all geared up for a great Christmas when Will woke up in the middle of the night very sick. He had a very high temperature and was throwing up. That kept us up for a few hours then woke us up again early in the morning with a repeat. It turns out about half my family got very sick that morning as well.It looks like we shared a sickness when we all got together. Finally around 1:00 PM Will and I opened presents from Santa. We both got some great stuff. Will got clothes, socks, a canvas, a John Wayne calendar, and some movies. I got lotion, a gift card, the new Carrie Underwood CD and a few movies. Then we took a break for Will to take a nap. That was hard for me. I wanted to open the presents to each other but I tried to be a patient wife. I could only wait so long though till I was waking him up to do more Christmas stuff. I gave Will a mouse pad with our pictures on it, a paint set and a Chuck Norris t-shirt. He gave me cute snow boots and hot hooker boots. After relaxing for a bit we headed to my sisters house to see them, one of my other sisters and my Mom. We had dinner up there and had a fun time. After Will and I came home and watched Wills new Star Trek movie.
We had a great Christmas even though it was a little different from normal. Thank you so much for all the Christmas wishes! I hope everyone had a great Christmas and remembered the reason for the season.
