merry dec 19

Our Little Christmas went well. I was up VERY late wrapping presents all by my lonesome, but it serves me right for not having started sooner. I was extremely sleepy when the girls came in to wake me, wiggling with excitement! That feeling is the best when you're a kid and realize you were actually able to fall asleep and now all you have to do is get your parents and get to the tree!
It was a challenge taking pictures and videos because I was doing both at once. My parents gave us a new digital camcorder but its not easy to download, so I just used Mitch's digital camera because I knew I wanted to make a smilebox. Although he was on the phone I wanted to be able to send it quickly so Mitch could see it right away. He hasn't seen though because the only emails going through now are just the govt work related. He sounded like he was ok to at least be able to be on the phone.
We opened presents, had easy breakfast stuff and while they were there playing I fell asleep on a pillow by the tree. Later I made the dinner of the things had asked for and afterwards me made cupcakes.
It was pretty low-key, just as any kid would like it to be when they just want to play with their new toys. We relaxed and enjoyed our blessings and eachother.
