December Continues

Our Christmas was incredible! Santa Clause (Justin in an AWESOME Santa suit I got a couple years back at Downeast) paid us a visit on Christmas Eve. We all had a turn sitting on his lap, and telling him our Christmas wishes. Justin is the funniest Santa. He's got the HO, HO, HO's down perfect, the glasses make the costume, and the beard fits just right;) I think he gets a little hot in the Santa suit though, cuz soon Santa was sweating beads. I don't know exactly what kicked off the laughing fest, but we all laughed so hard at him. Grandma and Grandpa where in tears! It was just plain fun. Christmas morning Miley got so spoiled by her grandparents with books, toys, and her favorite...a jumper. My parents gave us an awesome new camera, and a fabulous new mirror for our home. Everyday was filled with more delicious homemade food from Grandma, playing with grandpa, fun with the uncles and cousins. From top to bottom, it was just a fabulous Christmas. 26 Year Old Justin...Justin turned 26 on the 27Th of this month. We had a fun day celebrating his birthday together. We started off the day with gifts, then we pampered him at the Supercuts:) after that we hit up the Rack, shopped, and spoiled him, then met up with family for a suprise outing to the Body Worlds exibit. Then we rushed back home to have a fabulous dinner, then cake and ice cream. I hope he felt special. This guy sure deserves it! He works sooo hard to take care of Miley and I. It is not uncommon to find him up bright and early in the morning, and up super late- working every hour. I admire my husband. He is a tremendous example to me, and a terrific leader in our family. Love him! We also had the opportunity to celebrate my mom's 50Th Birthday. We cooked dinner, and tried to make the night special for her with my siblings, aunt, uncle, cousins, and grandparents paying tribute to her. In the end it turned out really nice. It was touching, and special; just how we wanted it to be. My mom said she could die happy after hearing all of us pay tribute to her. That is her funny way of saying she loved it. She called me today and said she has been basking in the glory of her special night. She is an amazing woman. We love her.
