I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas!

We all got up around 11, took our showers and got dressed. Headed downstairs for our annual opening of gifts. When I walked in the room, there was a sound like Tigger talking, and I looked around and there was a plastic present-type looking box and when you walk by it Tigger jumps out and says "Chrissymas" sayings. I LOVED IT. Definitely the kid in me escaping.

Trent and I opened our stuff. I got my new Kodak digi-tall camera, clothes, DKNY delicious perfume, books, and the greatest, my IKEA furniture. Loves it.

We went over to my grandmother's for Christmas brunch and opening gifts with the family. It was actually really hard for me. I just kept thinking back to memories about my Pa. He loved the holidays. Pa and I had a lot of traditions, but the best was always the cocktail shrimp, and when I walked in the kitchen, there was a tray of shrimp laid out with ketchup. I wanted to cry, but I couldn't. My grandmother was doing everything to keep things the same. She got shrimp, a tree, gifts, giftcards, lottery tickets for the grandkids. Andrea brought her new baby over, Cooper. And I just started thinking that my Pa died a month before the baby was born... so what if it's my Pa re-incarnated? Weird, I know. Anyway, we still had a lot of good times, and I'm sure everyone thought of him.

At my Ma's I got my Columbia jacket, clothes, Fantasy, and my Pumas!

I put my IKEA desk together and I loves it! And I started a new photo blog instead of getting a webshots. Check it out. It's one number different from this one.
