Christmas Day events

Our Christmas Day started around 8:00am... We had to wait for Jeremy to get home from working (shoveling snow). While we were waiting the cats got into their stockings. Catnip mice and yummy treats. They were throwing those mice everywhere and rolling over top of them, it was funny...
Jeremy got some new clothes, that actually fit him. Tabetha/Daniel got him a stereo and Candace/Brian got him a new Cell phone...Thanks alot girls. Although he hasn't asked to use our phones, nor are we getting his friends calls...
The kids had to wait til the big present was opened. The had come in yelling lets open, lets open... The big one was a New kitchen table and chairs. I was really surprised by that. Some one had mentioned that the one had was wobbly. But no one wanted to tighten the screws.
Jasmine didn't know what to think of all this, but she had so much fun. She got a laptop computer that tells and shows her ABC's with sounds and words that she can spell out.
Alden got and New fishing pole, A Mickey Mouse fishing pole that when your reeling in a fish the handle lights up. The big smile on his face was great... He always likes to go fishing with Papaw...
Adrian wanted a BB Gun, so him and Jeremy could shoot them when they get the chance. This one is the real Red Rider BB gun, the one that Adrian saw in the movie "A Christmas Story" We even tried to get the kids to stick their tongues on a pole across the street at the park, NONE of them would do it...
Ashlynn wanted this Baby Alive Feel Better Baby... she kept insisting that Santa will find it at Walmart. Well Walmart, Kmart nor Target carried this baby. Santa=I=Me had to go to Toys R Us, and it was on a Sunday... Anyone that knows me, knows that I don't shop. I shop online and get it delivered or I go in get what I want/need and get out. Well let me tell you that this was one of those times. We (I took Jeremy with me) went in got the baby, paid and walked out. No lines, or anything. They must have known I was coming...LOL
I think Tabetha and Daniel had more fun with Alden's race track. Which it was pretty cool...
Tabetha got a New mixer. Can't wait to see what she mixes up next. Daniel got a gift card, so he could get whatever he needed/wanted. Never know what to get him, I think he liked it...
Finally got Candace and Brian and their crew together. Had to drag the kids from their toys. Candace wanted a Care Package, so I made her a basket of cleaning supplies. Brian isn't picky, he got a lined flannel shirt w/hood and I also found 3 Jim Beam Bottles for him. He collects them, not too sure how many he does have.
Patsy and Joe even came by. It is very rare you get these 2 together and smiling.
As the day ends and the thought of taking down the tree is in my head, but I'll wait. It does and did come down on December 26Th. All taken down and pack away for another year.
Hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and Hope that the New Year brings Happiness, Peace and Joy
Until next time, hope all is well and be safe in your journeys...
