Christmas Time

Wow, another Christmas has come and gone. The years sure do seem to go by a lot faster now. I guess when you're not waiting impatiently for Santa to show up the days pass a bit quicker. We had a great couple days celebrating with both of our families.

This year we spent Christmas Eve with my family. Typically we spend it with Jackie's and head to Romeo for Christmas Day, but Jackie was on call Christmas day so we needed to stick around the Port Huron area. We spent the day over my parents house with them and Amy, Sergio, and Hayley.

Jackie and I got Hayley the Hannah Montana guitar, which she spent most of the afternoon rocking out on. We also got her, Amy and Sergio a family present, a tobbagan. Next time we get a good snow fall we will have to head over and test it out with them.

Christmas Day we had Jackie's mom, Amy and Jill over our house. We cooked turkey with all the trimmings. Sergio recommended we brine the turkey for 6 hours before cooking it. That worked out great as it turned out very well. Jackie was on call all day, but never got paged in. Thankfully, as I wasn't looking forward to manning the kitchen on my own.

Well, Merry Christmas to everyone! Hope your's was as good as ours was.
