I love this holiday. Not the gifts or the money, but the family and the meaning. I love getting together and having a reason to be thankful and happy. I love every member of the family I've been blessed with. I love the 9 person supper with my moms side, and the 31 person supper with my dads side. Although my family can annoy and bother me at times, around Christmas it seems that I can put it all aside. And you know what? I don't think its that even. I think that I've learned this year that they are more important to me than I have been making them. I am so entirely happy right now, minus the house being a disaster and it all being over. The cost worries me but then again, I am not paying the bills. It still worries me though. Highlights of the past week have been: Supper with auntie, Playing chase the ace (almost winning.. but not quite), Going to sleep Christmas Eve, Waking up and playing Battleship before Hailey was awake, Opening presents and seeing everyone smile and scream and laugh and be happy, Auntie coming over for breakfast :), Going to Grandma & Grandpas and spending time with them, Going over to Kim & Richards for supper, Watching Looney Tunes before bed, Beating Guitar Hero III, Visiting with Tasha & Jayda & Ryder, Having supper with Dads whole side (which was very good I must add), Visiting with Jason & Shannon & Liam & Reese & Sophie, Crying because I'm overly thankful for life and because of the fact that it was all over. But the trees still up which means it still counts. I love this holiday, did I mention?
Sometimes you stir in your sleep,
Sometimes we're all just dreaming.
:) Merry Christmas, really.
