I had a great great great (great?) Grandma who would only smile when she was very happy but never laugh because of that scripture that says "thou shalt not laugh" or however it goes...point being I'm sure we made her roll over in her grave over Christmas.
We ate, drank, and were merry for a whole month (and longer than that for the lucky ones!). We made christmas candy galore. We gave out said christmas candy while singing our hearts (and voices) out to anyone who opened their doors for us. We were hoarse for a week after that. We watched movies and talked till all hours of the morning almost every night. We sewed new baby stockings and helped Santa find food at costco for those stockings. We went christmas shopping and after christmas shopping and New Years shopping. We ate mexican food every day. We teased dad about his new ipad, then his new iphone that came a few days later. We ate oranges by the dozen and soaked up the sun. We wrapped presents for hours and hours. We made christmas presents for weeks. We sang around the piano. We walked around the Windsor making room for more calories. We schemed plans for the next time we would be together.
We really enjoyed Christmas.
We took Mom to Mokis to celebrate her birthday. You're getting old mom...YAY!!!
Parker read up on boy scouts while mom did her thang.
We strung cranberries and popcorn to drape on the tree...we're old fashioned like that;)
Christmas isn't Christmas without a trip to see the Temple lights!
