Catching up Part 2

Well, here I am still catching up and falling behind all at the same time! First, I'd like to catch up with the day after the family Christmas party on the 19Th - with Ashley's Birthday Party! We originally were not staying this late in the day, but since we were still around for lunch we surprised her by showing up at the Civic Center for a few circles on the ice, some cake and juice. Hope you had a great bday Ashley.

Next on this catching up post, we have the West Family Christmas in Murfreesboro. Chris and I were actually not planning on going because I had to work...but...thankfully my boss remembered that we do Christmas at New Years and arranged the schedule to let me go!

So the entire family made it there for the Holiday - Mom and Dad, Thom, Heidi and Matthew, Brent, Amanda and Makenna and us. Chris and I got in at about 11:35 New Years Eve, so just in time to bring in the New Year with the family.

Friday, we opened Christmas gifts and went to Chuck E Cheese where Thom and Heidi bought lunch. Then the girls + Thom and Matthew went shopping while Dad, Chris, Brent and Makenna went home for naps. We all got gift cards from Thom and Heidi for Outback - so that's what we did for dinner.

Saturday, We got ready for family photos and ate a wonderful lunch prepared by Brent and Amanda. We ate leftovers for dinner and watched Avatar with Joey from across the street. Then came Sunday and it was time to go home. Back to reality.
