An Early start to Christmas

Merry Christmas to all I am sure that many people I know are getting ready for Santas arrival while I am here at work. Santa came to our house early so that I wouldnt miss out on all the excitement. things didnt go quite as planned ( no cookies were baked, etc) but overall i think Joey and I did good. We went to church at 7 on thursday. I have to admit I was feeling down in the dumps for a number of reasons. None of which I can share ( kinda stinks you cant always speak your mind even on your blog) but lets just say i was starting to sink into pitty party mode. Needless to say Hopes Christmas Service did not dissapoint and even gave me inspiration to do something i never thought i would ( again maybe one day i will discuss but not now- I will just ask for prayers to get through it) I cried and cried while Joey held me and then after a slight argument ( poor thing I always tend to bottle it up and then explode it on him) Santa got underway a little after midnight. I went to sleep thinking things were different only to find in the morning that they were pretyy much the same ( again SO SORRY im sure this is hard to follow but somewhat talking about it still makes me feel better) After realizing that the show must go on we hit the living room to proceed with Santa. Of course I am not to sure that Will really got it but he did notice all the goodies and quickly walked over to investigate. We even got him to be a little interested in opening presents thanks to Thomas the train paper. He wasnt as thrilled about his Pottery Barn chair as I was but he did love his first remote control tonka car ( a big hit that almost wasnt haha) and in true kid fashion he was not interested in opening his clothes...any of them he simply shoved them to the side-how do kids learn this esp at a young age :) Joey loved his gifts i got him a surround sound system for our living room ( yeah I know we both will enjoy that) so I also got him some sweaters and a massage since i went a month ago without him...hes been pouting ever since. He actually told me what he was getting me a few weeks before Christmas bc he had to order it and wasnt sure if it was my style. he order me a right hand ring. Its a beautiful blue topaz oval stone surrounded by diamonds and then they go down the sides. Of course i love it although I will admit I wasnt sure about it to begin with but Joey obviously knows my style more than me hehe. Anyhow it wasnt going to be here before Christmas so he was kinda bummed i didnt have it to open this am and then this afternoon ups delivered it so i did end up getting it for Christmas :) After we were opening presents we went to assist...watch daddy put together his new toy and then we watch dispicable me (sp?) and let me just say it was the best little movie I loved it and so did Will( he didnt even budge). I also think I am going to enjoy this blue ray player deal Yeah you pay more for the movie but in most of them you get a dvd copy as well as a digital copy to put on your phone ( aka back up option when Will pulls out operation Freak out somewhere ) So I would definitely say its worth the money.
After a little nap we got ready to head to Joeys grandparents for christmas Eve. I only got to stay for about 30 minutes but it was good to see everyone.
There is still more fun to be had in the morning. Since we did santa today we will head straight away to all our family destinations :)

Merry Christmas to Everyone I hope everyone has a safe and fun Holiday!
