Very Merry Day.



Merry Christmas indeed. The last two days I have been able to spend an abundance of time with family. This time of year always reminds me to be thankful for what I may take for granted. Last night, Ben and I went to my in-laws house for dinner. It was a very eat-and-run scenario on our part because I had to finish making my mom's scrapbook (her Christmas present).



This morning, we woke up early to exchange gifts before spending the day at my parent's house. Ben had already gotten me the Wii Fit that I have been begging for but then he got me this PIMPIN digital photo frame that plays music from an MP3 player...kind of like a soundtrack. It's awesome. I got him a bunch of clothes and stuff that he needed (not necessarily wanted). However, there were two good items in there. One was a shirt with some video game reference on it. The other is a hoodie I had custom made. Those of you that have spent any significant amount of time with Ben recently will appreciate this... ESPECIALLY those that attended the reunion. The picture is below.



We had breakfast at my parent's house, opened some gifts and then Elizabeth, Ben and I went to see Marley and Me. I have been DYING to go see it. It was SUCH a great movie...ever so sad though. There was not one person that wasn't crying...and that theatre was packed! Afterwards, we went back to Mom and Mark's to finish opening gifts and eat dinner. On our way home, we got to talk to Daniel. Things just worked out perfectly today. I hope everyone's holiday was as good as ours!

XOXO
