Christmas

We had a wonderful Christmas! We still have to celebrate with my Mom & Dad tomorrow evening. Mom wasn't feeling well last week, so we post-poned it. We had a couple of real life Angels that made the kids' Christmas a spectacular one! They had so much stuff to open and it was everything that they love and needed (clothing, socks, undies). They really made out!
After the kids opened their presents here, we went to Stephanie's and had Christmas with them and Mom & Dad Plaster. And again, the kids made out huge! I think Benjamin paid Santa off, 'cause he had a humongous pile of gifts!! We had a great time over there.
While we were getting everything packed up and ready to leave, Matt's dad fell outside, on the ice. He hit his knee on the car, when he slipped, which made him hit his hip, which threw him totally off balance and he landed flat on his back, hitting his head on the bricks. Luckily he had his cell phone handy and called to let us know he'd fallen and needed help. Matt & his sister ran out to get him and helped him inside. We checked his head, there was no gash or bump or anything. He was just really sore. And his ego was bruised, a bit. But we didn't care about that. We just wanted to make sure he was ok.
So once we were sure he was indeed fine, Matt, the kids and I left and headed to my Dad's and Sandy's for Christmas. We got there about 8pm. And again, the kids got a bunch of cool stuff! We opened some of the presents for Amanda so she could play while Matt & I visited. The boys hung out with my brother Matt, playing video games. We stayed until just after 11pm. It was a long day, but we had  a good time with everyone.
Getting ready to do it again tomorrow night and then we'll be done until next year! I'll post a few pics of the kids opening presents.
