Happy Christmas

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas, survived the stress and the over eating and got all the toys you wanted. My Christmas was very nice. As usual Santa came and exploded in my living room.

Go ahead and tell me I am crazy but we got Mollie a laptop. To be honest I am not sure why. I mean I know part of the reason is because she can use one more and more with her school work. She is really doing well at school, better than in years past. I know a laptop will help but the real reason… she was driving me crazy wanting to use mine! There are two things I am not willing to share – Nick and my computer. Yes there are rule and guidelines going along with this gift and I will be doing a lot of monitoring. I hope we haven’t made a mistake.

Have you ever gotten a gift for someone and then Christmas morning you couldn’t find it? This is driving me nuts. Back around Thanksgiving LJ mentioned that he would like to have the game ‘Apples to Apples’. I happened to be shopping on Amazon when he said it so I clicked on it and ordered it for him. I came and I wrapped it.

Fast forward to Christmas afternoon, we are at my sisters, Collin was with us and his mother had gotten him that game. He brought it in for all of us to play. I said “Wait, LJ I got you that game. But you didn’t get it this morning did you?” Nope he hadn’t gotten it. I just assumed it hadn’t gotten under the tree and we would find it in the room where I kept all the gifts when I wrapped them. But no! That darn game is nowhere to be found!! We have looked every where, under the furniture, in closets, in the basement where we had put empty boxes!!! I can’t think of anywhere else to look! I know I am not crazy! I ordered it, I remember it coming, I remember wrapping it! Now where is he darn thing???

But other than that it has been a great Christmas. My cold hasn’t gone but I think I am going to beat it eventually. So how was your Christmas? And if you snuck in here and took LJ’s game, please bring it back.
