So, we spent the morning doing what else but opening the millions of presents under the tree. Oh, and the rest of us all had stocking full of Santa goodies! Anyways, it took quite a while to get thru them all. We actually took a break about half way thru because the kids were overwhelmed with all the stuff and just wanted to play. SO, we waited until Alan & Annette came over a little later to finish opening the gifts. I think we are all very thankful for all the wonderful gifts we recieved. Oh, that last picture of Mom was her opening a ring from Dad. It was a 1.5 carat diamond ring! WOW!! It is gorgeous! And well deserved! I think their gift budget for each other was $20....if you need tips on how to buy a real diamond ring on a $20 budget....just ask Dad! (Then tell me!!)
We enjoyed a delicious breakfast, and relaxed for as long as we could. Brent, Alisa, the kids, Alan and Annette headed to San Clemente to spend the afternoon with Brechbill's Gramma Katie and Uncle Sean. I know they really appreciated them all coming out for the day and it was so nice they got to do that! Mom, Dad, Vince and I hung out for the day, watching sports, relaxing, cleaning, and cooking! We made a nice dinner and watched a movie before the crew all came back. Dad even sat thru the whole movie!! That was a first! :)
It was a WONDERFUL Christmas Day!! We just wished Kenny & Nicole could be there as well. However they got to spend the day with Nicole's family up in Flagstaff and had a wonderful (snowy) day with them as well. They would be headed down the next morning to spend the weekend in Riverside.
I hope everyone got to spend a nice day with their family and friends, and had a wonderful Christmas as well. We feel really lucky and really blessed to have been able to spend this time with all our families!!
