Merry Christmas!!!

Christmas Day!

The morning started out great... I was able to sleep in a little bit!! When we got up it was time to have Christmas and open presents, John got me a Wii!!!



I was so excited!! I had been wanting one for a while and was excited to get it!! I think I did pretty good with John's gifts too!!

After we were done with opening the presents, it was time to start making the ravioli's! I made the dough... about 4 batches worth.  We ended up making over 100 ravioli's!!

I helped Terry prepare more of dinner so it would be ready to start cooking and then it was time to get ready.  I had to get a quick shower and then help my Mom and Gramma get to Terry's house.  Teresa was able to come too, after she got off work.

We started off with crackers and cheese, and a little champagne. When we sat down for dinner, we started out with the ravioli's!! They turned out so good. Then we had the standing rib roast, risotto, and artichoke hearts. It was all so good and I was stuffed.  We took a little break and then ended the night with homemade cheese cake!! The night was lots of fun and I think my Gramma and Mom had a good time too.

Saturday

I made myself go for a run today. I only got 5 miles it, but it was better then nothing.  Later that night, John, Dan, Teresa, and I meet some people to go bowling! I hadn't been bowling in a long time... it showed! I did make one strike, yea!!

After bowling, John, Dan, and I decided to go to a late movie. We went and was Sherlock Holmes.



This movie was really good, about halfway through, I was so tired, but I stuck with it and it turned out to be a good movie. 

Sunday

John left today to go back to OK City. :( I was a sad to see him go, but grateful for the long week with him here. And knowing that I might go there for New Years made the goodbye not so bad.

Later this morning, I headed to church with my Gramma, Mom, Uncle Dan and Jen.  After church we went to my Gramma's house for lunch (potato soup!) and to visit.  We also managed to teach Jen how to play Rummikub and played 5 games!!  I think she finally got the hang of it after so many games. Haha!

By the time we got done playing, my Aunt Mary Ellen and Uncle Emery came into town.  And my Gramma was excited to see them.  It meant we could finally open presents and have Christmas!! I got a coffee maker, a cookbook, and several gift cards!! Everyone else racked up too, especially my Gramma, she always does. :)

After we got done with presents we had Christmas dinner. It was so good, turkey, dressing, green bean casserole, and tons of other good foods. We were all stuffed when we got done but it worth it, it was all so good!!
