Is Christmas Over Already?

Wow! It seems like you are waiting and preparing for 2 months and then it's all over in a flash. We did have a WONDERFUL Christmas this year! We got way more than expected (or probably deserved, haha!), but best of all we got to spend it with family sans DRAMA! I know, amazing, right? Faith was ridiculously SPOILED by all and has had tons of fun these past few days playing with all of her new toys. Dustin and I went and bought a Wii a few days ago with gift cards we received (yes, we are big kids), but have yet to set it up - I guess he is no hurry for me to kick his booty!

We spent Christmas week up in FREEZING Utah, while they were having the worst snowstorm of the year (lucky us), and stayed with Grandma Maggie and Poppa Rich (Dustin's mom and her husband), and were also lucky enough to have my entire family together in Utah so we got to spend it with both families this year.

Faith had a BLAST playing with her cousins and getting SPOILED by her grandparents and she was more into Christmas this year which makes it sooo much more fun and exciting for Dustin and I. On Christmas Eve, we made cookies for Santa and left them out with a glass of milk and some carrots for the reindeer; Faith started putting the carrots on the plate with the cookies and when I told her that was enough carrots she said, "No, we need more. Santa has LOTS of reindeer!"

This has nothing to do with Christmas, but I had to write about it anyway because it happened while we were there: We were at Maggie's house and Faith reached around to her bum really quick and Maggie asked if she was okay and Faith said, "Yeah, I just have a WEDGIE...I get wedgies sometimes...and I just hafta pull 'em out." Leave it to a 3 year old to tell it how it is :o)

I hope you all had a wonderful Holiday, as we did, and a very Happy New Year!!
