Wednesday December 24, 2008

Worst Part of the Day - I guess it's hard to try and emulate Christmas Eves of ago (when 25 or so of us would gather at my G-Ma's and have a never ending cocktail party of fun! Gifts were completely secondary as we got older - almost unnecessary really.) And I didn't tell Chris and Ann what time to come over ... so I am all dressed and ready at 5 p.m. and they don't come over until 6:30 p.m. It's just never going to be the same - get over it and move on!

Best Part of the Day - After rebounding from my little pity party, we had a fun, fabulous Christmas Eve. While Quinn and his cousin Carson both had minor meltdowns, it was all in good fun. We had tons to eat and good drinks (Erik and Chris were drinking spiked Egg Nog - ugh!) And it was nice and warm outside, but still felt warm and Christmas-y inside. Very, very fun.

NOTE - do not leave a bag full of presents with a six year old, two three year olds and an almost two year old. I put it on the ground, went to get my camera and WHOA they were ripping into them by the time I returned.
