Christmas

So Christmas was as fun as it can be with 2 adults. Last year we had Stacey's family living with us so it was tons of fun! We had to get up super early with the kids and see them get all excited. I don't think I had a Christmas like that since I was little. Anyways, but this year we were back to normal. We slept in...I got up and started doing laundry then we opted to open presents. Pippin & Pantala loved their new toys! haha. I have to get my dogs presents too! I got a watch and Rock Band 2! woohoo! We all know how I've been spending my last few weeks. I gave Dustin a Bean Bag (I know it sounds stupid, but he's been really wanting one bad for awhile now) and the normal couple of shirts and the token tie.

Pippy playing with his toy.

Pantaly playing with hers.

A fight over toys (kids will be kids :P haha)

Our stockings were sitting by the window with care. No hangin' in this house! (I actually intended to hang them but never got that far. Christmas kinda snuck up on me)


Now the most fun for me come Christmas day is really the day after Christmas! Somewhere down the road we started a tradition where all the sisters go shopping. We go to Tucson or Mesa and basically hit Macy's...and hit it hard. There are some killer deals. Last year I got a super cute $100 skirt for a penny!! It was crazy. This year, no penny deals, but I got about $1100 worth of clothes for $300. What a deal I tell you.

When we were driving back from Tucson it was snowing everywhere and even here in Thatcher, so me and Dustin had to go out and take  pic in it while it was coming down a bit. We knew it wouldn't be enough to make an impression the next day. It was pretty much melted by noon.

It snowed in Thatcher?!? Wow, I only remember that happening twice growing up. Lucky you! And can I say, I want $110 of clothes for $300. Nice work!
