JUST ANOTHER HAPPY DAY: Christmas continued

Wow, what a Christmas. It is amazing how we can be gone for 14 days and it goes by so fast. We left for our 6 hour drive to Ohio on the 20th and filled that time with our 2nd annual family Christmas scavenger hunt, annual family steak dinner, opened presents, me and the kids getting sick and opened gifts on Christmas eve at Noni's.

We left Ohio Christmas morning I think it was 6am for a 5 hour drive to Indy where we opened presents on Christmas and visited with my Aunt, Uncle and Cousin, made a visit to Bloomington one day, I had a chance to finally catch up with some girlfriends which some I have not seen in at least 23 years, that was awesome. We visited my Grandmother in the nursing home, and went to my Aunt and Uncle's home for a family get together.

If that was not enough we left the kids with my parents and Jason and I were off to Chicago to ring in the new year and celebrate his 40th birthday where we met with his friends from IU. We stayed downtown so we had a chance to shop on Michigan Avenue then we were treated to a limo one night visiting some really amazing places in Chicago then spent New Years eve the guys watched the IU game the we had a great meal and finished the night in a local bar ringing in the new year. On new years day we were on our way back to Indy to spend the night, pick up the kids, pack the car and then travel 10 hours home.

Back to school the next day was rough but we made it, our kids are troopers for all that we put them through at Christmas.

Thank you so much to our wonderful family for such a memorable Christmas and for our wonderful gifts and warm hospitality you truly are the reason for all we do and we cannot Thank you enough.
