Y'all we almost had a white Christmas! Believe it or not there was SNOW in south Louisiana on Christmas day. Snow that actually accumulated! Even more odd was that it all happened south of us - here in Baton Rouge we only got a few teeny tiny snow flurries. :( Fools that we are though we got excited even by that.
Shut up.
Christmas Eve was lots of fun over at Lisa's. The cousins from north Louisiana came over too, making it even more lively. My grandmother braved the cold and joined us all which was nice, though we had to bring her home early. While she was there we were able to get a Five Generations photo.
Great-great grandma (my grandma), grandma (my sis Patti) holding baby Cambri, daddy(my nephew Beau), and great-grandma (my mom)
We opened gifts, drank, ate, played games, sang karaoke (but the mic didnt work right.) We did pretty much the exact same thing the next day, minus the singing. I vow one day to beat my cousin Jay at Trivial Pursuit. The guy is freakishly good. We played guys against girls, and they (mostly Jay) whipped our butts every single time. Grrrrr.
Had a ball with my digital camera. Best gift ever! It was so cool to take bunches of photos, download and print them and everyone could see them right away!
My mom and me. I really do love that photo. :)
Got some nice gifts: a sweater, Snoopy candle, "Dazed and Confused Flashback edition" dvd, a photo album for my pics, hat, scarf and gloves, and a travel suitcase for my trip to Quebec. Talked to Tracey and she's all, "Yeah, the temp's not too bad today - only 15 below zero." *blink* I am so going to freeze to death next week.
So another Christmas come and gone. I always hate how it seems to end so quickly, but then once it's over it's OVER for me. I've already taken down the decorations and put it all away for next year.
And while it was fun, it feels good to have the house back to normal. :)
