Christmas 2010!

After having fun playing Polly Pocket the early afternoon of the day before Christmas Eve we headed out on the town. We enjoyed buying gifts for our family, having a nice dinner at our A.Q., and a nice visit to the square to see the lights. She got to ride a pony, which she loved every second of, and we ran into her best friend Eliana, her sisters, and her mother Aly. It was great to see them and we plan to get together sometime in January.

We spent our Christmas Eve morning and early afternoon having fun wrapping gifts, making and baking homemade gingerbread cookies (they turned out fab.), and playing a little Polly Pocket. We spent the later part of the day at Aunt Cheryl's for our annual, traditional, Christmas Eve get together. It was wonderful being amidst the entire family and partaking in the usual festivities.

Christmas Morning my Lovely showed up around 11:30. She quickly showed me stuff she got at Mommies and then, after freaking out about the Barbie Video Girl under the tree, went to town opening her other gifts. Think she liked what she got?

They were all things she wanted "really, really, bad". We then went thru our stockings. We spent the rest of the day having fun playing. We started by playing Barbies + her Monster High doll for around 4 hours, she played some of her Pokemon game on her DSi, we played "Tangled" on the Wii, and we played plenty more Barbies.

The day after Christmas we started the day off w/ a trip to Church. It was nice. Back home I feverishly cooked and did final cleaning for our expected company; Cody, Robi, Grandma, and Branden. We all enjoyed each others company, had tasty homemade gumbo, exchanged gifts, and played the "Are You Smarter than a Fifth Grader" board game.

The day after the day after Christmas, aside from a quick trip to Best Buy for batteries and few minor chores, was spent having fun playing. We played Barbies, her mini skill crane game, the board game "Pictureka", and Wii games.

MaryJane and I sure had an awesome past five days. Looking forward to an awesome 2011 with my Gurly.
