Merry Christmas.

After almost 13 years we finally stayed home for a Christmas Holiday. We did miss seeing family for the day but we also equally loved watching the kids get to play with their new toys. I think we were happy with the path we took when we got more family gifts and less "stuff" for the kids. Yea we are just buying entertainment but I think we did pretty good. It was also nice to pay cash for everything.

The kids got plasma cars. What are those? I dont really know except they go on their own and they just go-Not sure how but hey- cheap fast and easy. They also got the Sunday clothes and socks. They were happy about those-well they said they were. Sean and I took them up to the hill behind the school. It was small enough that Patrick could try out his new snowboard and the others to burn off energy. It was fun and the kids came back ready for a big dinner. Thank goodness I started it before we left. It was a big one! That finished off the kids and they all kinda trickled into their area and did their thing. It was a great day.
