Merry Christmas!

I had a very Merry Christmas this year! I even got to sit on Santa's lap! I also drove a car dressed up in a reindeer costume from the day after Thanksgiving until Christmas. The car costume was given to me by a man who lived at my work. We had two parties at my work this year. One was for the residents and their families and the other was for employees and their families. On Christmas day I got to sleep in. We had our family Christmas party at two in the afternoon. I always love it when everyone comes over! I got some pretty awesome gifts this year including a GPS system for my car that I am really enjoying! One of my sisters got one as well. I also got a Cricut cutting scrap-booking machine that I am absolutely loving! I can cut out letters and shapes including hearts, stars, circles, blue ribbons, apples, and even fleur-de-lis! We drew names and my sister-in-law Katy drew my name and gave me the DVD and CD of The Phantom of the Opera that I had asked for. I love it! I have watched the movie repeatedly and I listen to the CD whenever I go anywhere. Thanks Katy! I also got a coat and another CD. I had so much fun spoiling my nephews and nieces! I got so many barbies for Kylie! It was so much fun! I decorated our house with a Christmas tree upstairs and another one downstairs. I also found an old cardboard wall hanging of Santa in a sleigh and his reindeer that I hadn't seen since I was a child and I put it up in our basement. It is kind of old and worn, but it sure brought back memories. My nieces and nephews gave me the most darling handmade ornaments! My visiting teachers gave me the twelve days of Christmas this year! Every day was a different figure until I had a full nativity set! Thanks to everyone for making my Christmas so wonderful!
