Christmas Eve I worked 11-7 at Chick-fil-a. Ugh, not fun. It was so busy. So many people ordered trays, and so many people were there to get food. We had like 4-5 extra people in the kitchen, and with the machines running nonstop, it was like a thousand degrees! It was disgusting. And Francisco was really angry with people...so that was putting everyone in a bad mood. But by like 3 it slowed down a bit and people were leaving and we had all gotten lunch, so it got better after that.
I got home around 7:45, took a shower, and left for the 9pm Christmas Eve service. Our first time in the new sanctuary! It was really nice in there, and the service was great. We got back home around 11. I was so tired, but I stayed up for a while and ate and such. Then I just kind of passed out in my bed, I'm not sure what time.
The sister woke me up around 7, and my mom came in soon after to read me a Christmas story. I got up soon after that and went downstairs, where mom let us open one present before breakfast. Emma got slippers and I got an electric blanket (:D It's red). We ate and then I went in and fell asleep under my blanket, turned on of course. We opened our presents from the parents, but weren't allowed to give our ones to each other until the brothers came. They finally showed up around 12 and we got to exchange those presents. Nate and Melissa got me the 10 picture frames in a box! I wanted it so bad. 10 black picture frames that all match each other to hang up in my room. Yay! Nate liked the movies we picked out for him, which was good cause we had no idea what to get him. Finally, everyone was done. Except my present for Melissa. I saved that one for last. I made/got her a calendar with pictures of her and Nate on each month, to match with the dates they were taken and such. She opened it up and got really excited, then as she was looking through it she started to cry. She loved it so much. I'm so happy! I usually don't do well with presents when I have no idea of what they want. But it worked for that one. :)
Then we went to Nana and Poppops. We just kind of hung out all day with the cousins and each other. It was a nice time. :)
Got home around 11 and straight to bed. Got up at 9. Now comes the week of nonstop homework and Chick-fil-a. :( I have so much homework to do. Lame.
