Hope U Had A Merry Christmas!!!

Christmas was great! Everyone was home except Kristin and John. (we missed you!) Christmas Eve we all gathered at mom and dads. We were lucky to have the missionaries join us. For one it was his first Christmas of his whole life being away from home. Lets just say we made sure he a great time! We did the normal spread of heavy hordevours. Then Dad opened his present from Luis--a gift certificate for the gun range! My dad smiled with joy as my mom frantically said "no guns in this house!!" We went on to read the traditional Christmas Stories and sang Christmas hymns. Now you have to remember Kristin was not here! Now we warned the missionaries we were not musically inclined but no warning was enough for the tunes the were about to hear. We all giggled the whole way through at just how bad we really sounded. But the spirit was still there and we had a great time! We all told our favorite Christmas stories which again shocked the elders even more. We gave them there gifts and sent them home before curfew. All in all I'm sure they had a good time. Mom and Dad gave us all pj's and we settled down for the night. Christmas Day was wonderful Kinsey enjoyed every minute, Gregory got a paintball gun and grandma couldn't remember one gift from the next. We all went to Laurens for dinner and Luis made us a wonderful dominican dinner. Kinsey had wanted a pogo stick (yes that's right they are back) for Christmas. I had to order it over the internet bc everyone was sold out. It finally came Christmas Eve. My mom and I pulled it out of the box and the thing was as tall as Kinsey! The box read: ADULT POGO STICK! So after dinner the adults had a pogo contest. LOL! Sarah won!It was great to finally be back home with my family. The best part for me was watching the nativity story and having a new real testimony of our saviors birth. i love my family and wouldn't rather be anywhere else this holiday season!!! Krisitn & John we missed you!!! And thank you Kristin for making this page for me! I love You!!!
