Christmas at Mimi & Poppy's...

If you haven't noticed, because everyone's lives are so hectic & we all live in different places, my family often celebrates Christmas a little prematurely. We choose to do this so we can have at least a whole day together, uninterrupted. We got to Muskogee to dad & Christy's late Saturday night. We woke up this morning to a delicious breakfast & followed it with our stockings. Every year, they have a stocking packed full for each of us & one enormous one for each family. It's always SO much fun to see what's in them...you never know, but you can bet it's always good! We all got great stuff & Dylan really got into it this year. She was really excited, but the biggest surprise to us all was in the bottom of the big stocking. They got us & my sister's family a Wii!!!!! I was so excited. I have wanted a Wii forever, but didn't have an excuse to have one. No excuse needed anymore!! I am a proud owner. As soon as we were finished, we had one hooked up & the games began. Did I mention I hold the record for the highest bowling score? 186 to be exact.... We all had so much fun. Dad had no idea what a Wii was so we must give an extra THANK YOU to Christy for being in the know. I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't go & buy another for themselves. They loved it too! Memaw, Uncle David, & Aunt Karen joined us for lunch (& Wii) & presents (& Wii). We had such a wonderful day, a wonderful weekend. I am so thankful for all of my family. From Tulsa to Muskogee, I loved every minute I get to spend with each of you. Thank you for everything & the wonderful traditions we share. We are very blessed! She's so excited...

The Wii's!!!
