Christmas Day 2007



Christmas was great! The morning started out a little rough...both girls woke up a bit grumpy because of the long day yesterday, but once they got to start playing with presents, they improved significantly. We had a nice little breakfast after all the wrapping paper stopped flying and the girls got to play with their toys for a little while before we headed over to mom and dad's for more family stuff. It was nice to hang out with the family some more and exchange gifts with everyone.

We went over to Matt's parents' house later in the evening and got to spend some time with his siblings and parents, and exchange gifts over there too. The kids all ran around and played together for a while, probably driving grandma and grandpa a little crazy.

Angie was doing really well, talking and watching the kids. It was the first time I've really heard her talk since before the strokes, so that was one of the big highlights of the night. I'm so happy to see her progress...especially for how much that helps Joe and the kids.

All in all, it was a great day with lots of time with both sides of the family. I love this time of year for that very reason. It gives us more opportunities to spend time with everyone. Now...if I just didn't have to go back to work tomorrow...
