Merry Christmas to all...and to all a good night!

Christmas Day. Sean and I spent the day at home and really had our celebration yesterday during Christmas Eve. We had a nice large dinner and watched "White Christmas" and the King's Singers with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. They had lots of lovely Christmas songs and carols along with a reading of the Christmas story. We opened a few presents early then at midnight toasted in Christmas with Sparkling Apple Cider and opened the rest of the presents. Cashel got a red hoodie. I'll have to upload a pic of him in it which is just so hilarious (he's not a big fan). It was interesting just doing a Christmas exchange with the two of us. He got my gifts on Christmas Eve (slacker) and wrapped them only a few hours before we opened them. I got him the complete Monty Python set, The Sound of Music, the newest Batman movie, Indiana Jones 4, two books, a box of cherry cordials, and a travel shaver set. He got me the new Sarah Brightman cd, two books, and a Buddah Board (a board you can draw on with water but he messed up my old one and I had to throw it away). As for Christmas we slept in and had a glazed ham, mashed potatoes, corn, stuffing, and homemade white bread. Yum!

We'll be heading to Oklahoma in a few days to spend Christmas with our families. We couldn't head home for Christmas so they just postponed it for us. We're spending 2 1/2 days with his family and 2 1/2 days with my parents and grandparents. Since we're flying we really hope the weather will cooperate and they delays won't be too long.
