Christmas!

I know that this post is long over due but like I said before life has kind of been crazy. To start of the Christmas season the Highland South puts on a Family Christmas Hymn Sing. Which includes a multi faith choir. This year my dad and I both sang in that choir. This year for Christmas we all went to my Grandma Kay's house for Christmas Eve. Usually Christmas Eve we have a prime rib dinner. This year grandma made a ham and twice baked potatoes. Not one of my most favorite meals. My Grandma actually ended up being sick Christmas Eve so it was kind of a laid back night where we eat opened our presents and really didn't stay at her house very long. Then Christmas Day it was just my siblings and parents. The best part about this Christmas is that Nate was home this year. My mom was so crazy busy with school and finals that this year she gave each of us money and told us to go by our own Christmas presents but we had to wrap them and put them under the tree. If you know me I hate surprise and usually know what I am getting each year anyways so I had no problem buying my own presents.  This year it was great just spending time with our family and not feeling like we were too rushed. The day after Christmas we did my mom's side of the family Christmas party. The last couple of years they have gone tubing up at Solider Summit. Me not being the huge fan of playing in the snow as I don't really like being cold just hung out in the lodge with my dad. Then we came back to our house had some dinner and played games. The one game that we always end up playing it happy family. It is one of my cousins favorite games. It was great being able to see my cousins who live in California that we usually only get to see during the summer and then at Christmas time.
