So, this is what the holidays have done to me. I guess since I’m in school and Drew’s in school, I thought Christmas break would be a time to relax and enjoy life and get ready for Christmas. I was right about the getting ready for Christmas part, and while I am enjoying life, there is nothing relaxing about it. I actually didn’t even know this picture was on here until I went
to put the pictures on the computer. Anyways, I figured since we’re the only non-Jewish people in the world who celebrate several days of Christmas, I need to start posting gradually to fit it all in. This first picture of Drew and Alli is actually at home playing dress-up. Drew is wearing her Chinese dress that Erin got her from her study-abroad thing last year, and Alli is in some sort of flapper dress that someone in the family got her. Alli thinks whenever she puts a dress
on she’s Cinderella. So, here are the kids at Andy’s mom’s house on Christmas Eve Eve (the 23rd) in front of her tree. It was the first present-opening of the year, so, as you can tell from the pictures, the kids were quite wound up. They had a blast. Drew and Alli got the Cinderella talking kitchen, which you can sort of see in this picture taken this morning. This is Andy putting it together with them waiting not so patiently. Evan got a big truck full
of blocks as his big gift, which he is now pushing around the house at top speed, terrorizing every one and enjoying every minute of it. This
morning he got himself dressed, which I had to get a picture of since he put all his clothes on backwards. He was pretty proud, and I hated to burst his bubble and fix it. Andy said we should just let him go like that, but my OCD was screaming “
It’s not right!,” so I had to fix it. By the way, I don’t really have OCD for those of you who don’t know that I self-diagnose constantly with whatever latest disease trend is out there. Well, I guess that’s it for now. We have the Clarks and Andy's dad tonight, which will definitely be a late night for us, and then tomorrow Santa comes, we have church, and then we do my family. It's funny how it's sooo busy and exhausting, but when it's over I'm kinda sad. Plus, it means I have to go back to cooking real meals. Ugh! Oh well, I need to go get my dessert made and all my pigs wrapped in blankets for the big Clark party tonight. Merry Christmas!!!
