Christmas :D

So maybe I'm getting a little bit better at blogging (its been less than a week since my last post!)... We'll see. :D

Holidays were complicated this year.

My aunt and uncle have a weird holiday thing where one year they spend Thanksgiving with my aunt's family, and Christmas with us, and then the opposite the next year. This was their year to spend Christmas with my aunt's family. Mom thought that, since he would not be coming to Granny and Pa's for Christmas, that we could just all get together on Christmas Eve at our house, have dinner, open presents, etc. That was evidently too straightforward. :P He and his wife and daughter did come over on Christmas Eve and we all had lunch with Granny and Pa. His family and ours exchanged gifts. We opened our presents from Mom and Dad (we always do this on Christmas Eve). My half-sister and her husband came over and opened our presents to them (they don't buy Christmas presents, something about keeping the focus of the Advent on Jesus). Then we packed up all of our stuff and went up to Granny and Pa's for Christmas. My aunt and uncle had Christmas at Granny and Pa's on the 27th. So we basically had three separate Christmases. Make sense? No.

But it worked. :D

I got the digital camera I wanted. Which rocks. That's big present #1. Big present #2 is a letter jacket whenever Marching Band orders them. So overall I'm pretty pleased.

My Christmas presents to myself were the recent purchases of four cds... (Folklore and Superstition-Black Stone Cherry, Pretty Odd-Panic! At The Disco, Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist- the soundtrack, and Chicago- the Soundtrack) I love them all.

Oh and I should be prac
ticing for All-Region Tryouts or working on my History Day script... I'm doing neither... Oh well. ;)
