We spread out the stops over the weekend and that seemed to work good!
We did end up skipping the Bruns side get together (Nate's Mom's side) because it was in Mound on Christmas Eve. and that is just too much to cram into one day!! I am hoping to get it set up so we can just have it every year on like the Sun. before Christmas and just have it the same every year then there will be no question about when we are getting together :) (we'll see how that goes!!!) I'm kinda glad we didn't go though because Doug and Eileen (Nate's Mom & Dad) got the flu the next day!!! YUCK.....And we have already had that here and we don't want to again!!!! I don't know if they got it from there or somewhere else but that's OK I didn't care to find out!!!
Anyways, The boy's had a good time this Christmas, Gavin really got into it again and also kinda embraced the whole Santa thing on his own for the first time (something we have not ever encouraged) it was really cute, so we will see how many years this lasts :) He was being really kinda naughty on I think Christmas Eve. so I told him I was going to call Santa and tell him to come get his presents and he looked at me with all seriousness and said "How are you going to call the North Pole" HaHaHa.....That kid never ceases to amaze me!
Reed Really got into his 1st Christmas, The whole Wrapping paper thing was very entertaining to him :)
Nate and I survived another Shopping Season that I think both of us are glad is over!!! And we are doing well.
Maybe looking at taking a week off in Jan. and going on a family trip!!! We will see how that pans out !!!
Well that's about all for now....I'll post again soon!!!(maybe New Year's!)
