Christmas is over...oh how fast it came and went. We spent this year on the go-go.
To cut down some miles, Luke and I decided to celebrate our Christmas with each other on Christmas Eve morning. It was great to "pretend" to spend Christmas morning together and relax for a bit. We then had to gather up our goods and pack for a couple of days to head to Jackson for Christmas with the Bregg side.
The Bregg Christmas was fun! I found that I might have eaten too many buckeyes throughout the night, but I only get them once a year right? I also learned how to play Eucre and we played that into the late hours of the night with the family. I hooked now...anyone up for Eucre??
We then headed to my parents house so we could wake up Christmas morning with them. Mom made her famous breakfast casserole. She only makes it once a year - you don't wanna miss it! I drank coffee with mom, we opened presents, and played with my Ruger puppy (he's not really a puppy anymore) all before we had to pack up and head to Bronson.
We were having a brunch with the Butters' down in Bronson and had to make it there about noon. We had a great time. It had been a long time since we got to see everyone and the first Christmas in 3 years that we were all together. We spent the night playing Skip-Bo and then watching a Christmas movie. We ended up getting home about 10:30pm. It was a LONNNGGG day.
By Sunday, we were beat. We had once more family Christmas with the Gafjken's at 4:00 back in Jackson, but we opted out. We were sorry that we missed seeing everyone, but it was a long weekend and we needed a break. The driving was getting out of control too. Luke also had to wake up early Monday morning to drive an hour an a half to work. He wanted a break from driving as well.
Overall, Christmas spent with family and friends was great. The driving on the other hand got old really fast.
Next year, I vote everyone comes to visit us! : D
