Merry Christmas!

A Merry Christmas to you all! A couple days late....sorry....

I hope this Christmas you really got to enjoy the time with family and friends. (and days off work if you were blessed in that way =D)


This year is my third year spending Christmas away from my family. Luckily...I wasn't NEARLY as sad about it as I was on Thanksgiving. But man do I miss them!

I did get to see them though!!! My dad has some new toys and after a lot of persuasion he finally started to play around with his webcam on his laptop. So thanks to Google Hangouts via Google+, I got to see him and my sister along with my nephew, mom, aunt and uncle! (FYI....that many people is a little too much to understand whats going on via webcam!!!) It was a lot of fun being able to see them and not just imagine their voices through typed words or imagine their facial expressions through a phone line voice.

For Zech's family we had their annual Christmas Eve party (though...it didn't happen last year, so this was my first experience at it =D). I just want you all to know...it's so much fun spoiling people and watching other people be spoiled by family that loves them! (and being spoiled of course, but that's not what Christmas is about......) We all had so much fun hanging out together. It truly is a blessing to have such a big family that loves everyone so much!

Of course I was having way too much fun hanging out with Mirm and then rushing around getting ready for the party to remember to even think about NOT forgetting my camera. (Aka...I forgot my camera and have no pics to show of our fun).
