Merry Merry Merry Merry Merry Christmas!

I couldn't sleep almost at all; part excitement, part not feeling well. Martin's alarm went off at 7:30 and he got up to wrap my presents while I put his presents under the tree, and stuffed the stockings. He finished about 8:30 and we started our Christmas morning.

Seth left this for us under the Christmas tree this morning. Dr. Pepper is Martin's favorite!

She loved it!

Martin's presents: Wireless mouse, 2 hoodies, longsleeve collared shirt, book, travel mugs, 20 questions, pajamas, socks, undershirts, sweater, candy, belt, 2 jaguar cars, and the rice is for a heat pack that I've been meaning to make, but ran out of time.

My presents: Christmas dishes from Tai Pan Trading that I'm in love with, 5 shirts, scarf, fuzzy socks, fuzzy blanket, lemon heads, kisses, and a 22oo piece scrapbook kit with TONS of rub-ons that make me very happy!

Abbi's presents: The brown toys were in her stocking, a big busy bone, 2 smaller busy bones, and beggin strips.

I think our Christmas turned out great! This was our first Christmas alone together. Our first Christmas together was when we were engaged, and we spent the morning at Mom and Doug's house. Last year Martin's parents were here. It was so fun, and Martin is the cutest thing! He did such a good job with my presents, I was completely surprised with all of them, and I love them all!

After we opened presents Martin went back to bed to try to stay on his regular schedule from working the night shift, and I took a little nap. When I woke up Mom had called and wanted me to go with her and Doug to Gayla's house and Jason's house to see what everyone had gotten for Christmas. Both of their families had an excellent Christmas, and they must have been good because Santa brought them great gifts!

Mom took me home and I woke Martin up and we headed over to Mom and Doug's house for breakfast (at 2:30 pm.) We saw what they got, made/ate breakfast, and Martin helped to set up Mom's new laptop, and Doug's new LCD computer monitor. We left about 8:30ish and have been relaxing and enjoying the rest of our Christmas together.

"Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night"
