Christmas and California

Christmas was a wonderful season! I loved every minute of it! We did Christmas Eve with Luke's side of the family! Always a merry time with the Haney/Cooper Family! We enjoyed seeing our cousins and we LOVED the white elephant exchange! (Somehow we ended up with the disgusting used scale and cover in the back of our truck . . . YUCK!) Christmas morning was a special moment for our family. After some thought and consideration, we decided to do Santa. (I love all who do Santa and who don't do Santa the same!!) Mandie was excited to see that Santa had actually brought what she asked for: a pink bunny and a sleigh bell. Mandie and Matthew played together all of Christmas morning, they took an early nap, and then we went to my parents house for the afternoon and evening to do Christmas with the Chaffins! It was a great time. My parents got Mandie a scooter, and Mandie and Whitney scootered around outside for a long time! I'll have to post pictures later!

New Years (tonight) was also a special day! We went to our cousin's house for a party and had a fabulous time playing 'Catch Phrase' . On the way there, I surprised Luke with something you want to know nothing about, and then Luke surprised me with a trip to CALIFORNIA! We are leaving on Friday, and coming back Tuesday! I am so excited to see our friends there, and to see the beach, and Mandie can't wait to see Mickey Mouse! We literally have not taken ourselves on a REAL vacation since our honeymoon! We are ready and very excited!! Thank you baby!

Happy New Year to you all!!
