Merry Christmas!




Merry Christmas blog friends! I hope yours was as good as ours. This year was so much fun... the boys were really into opening their presents and playing with all their new loot. They were so cute!
To back up a little, the night before Christmas Eve Payt got sick and was up all night with a tummy ache. He finally threw up around 8:30 am and felt much better. Then that night (Christmas Eve) we went to my mom and dad's house for a family get together- our traditional Christmas Eve chili dinner. My brother and sister and their families were all there, so the boys had a great time playing with their cousins. They were ready to get home, though, and put out milk and cookies for Santa, which they promotly did and went to bed. We didn't hear from them again until 7:15 Christmas morning! When they woke up they were in awe of all the wonderful things Santa left them. We spent the morning opening lots of toys and getting ready to have Nana & Gramps, Uncle Buzz and fam over for lunch. Buzz and his family couldn't stay long after lunch, but my mom and dad did and we played Mexican Train dominoes all afternoon! Then in the evening we went to see the "dancing" Christmas lights in Norman. It was a great day, but I was drained and went to bed as soon as we got home... at 8:30!
I hope you all had a great Christmas and wonderful plans for New Year's!

What are the "dancing" Christmas lights you speak of?

Somebody who lives off of Hwy 9 East and 72nd has a big farm that they do up with tons and tons of Christmas lights. You go there, park, then turn your radio to a certain station that they have posted and the lights "dance" to the music. It's pretty cool.
