2 down, 1 to go

We've now had two of our 3 Christmases - Saturday night was with my Father. It was the usual - pizza, one sister two hours late, one sister not talking to another sister, gifts of $, toys for the kids - one Christmas runs into another with him. :-)

Christmas number 2 happened last night with MIL. It was held at the royal restaurant - La King of Burgers - aka Burger King. It was a low key celebration. We ate food, the kids ran around the play place - presents were handed out and we went home.

Tomorrow morning will be breakfast with my Mom and then we will be done with having to GO someplace for Christmas. I'm sure this last one we have to go to will be drama - I will be doing my best to sit at the end of the table with my children and as far from the drama as I can get.

For the first time ever in my lifetime, I will not be attending Christmas Eve with my extended family - it feels weird and nice all at the same time. If you see my last post you will see part of why this decision was made. And yes, I will be enacting the "no comment" rule at this breakfast - although most likely I will be silent or change the subject rather than actually SAYING "no comment." I'll probably be THINKING a lot worse things that that! hahahaha

I'm looking forward to hanging out with the kids for Christmas - we've got new video games to play and we still haven't watched Horton Hears a Who!! Maybe I can convince every one to watch it with me on Christmas Eve - maybe Horton can be our new Christmas tradition - he does embody the spirit of the holiday at the end. LOL!

Only TWO more days until Christmas!! YIKES!!
