A Snowed In Christmas

We had a very different Christmas this year...again. Instead of me nearly burning down Kelly and Philip's house while I was on bed rest, Kevin and I were like everyone else: snowed in! Kevin's family were supposed to come over to our house on Wednesday night for Christmas dinner, and Thursday we were going to head to my mom's. But NOOOOO....we had to get hit with a super snow storm.

Luckily, my aunts Marilyn and Paula brought their families (and Christmas dinner) to our place on Christmas. It was a lot of fun, and so nice to have them here. It was a bit shaky on them getting here, but they made it!

While it totally stunk to not be at my mom's for Christmas, it was nice to have the kids at home with just Kevin and I. Renee hooked up her laptop with a webcam in mom's living room, and I was able to see everything going on,including Isabel, Alaina, and Alice opening their gifts. It was so cool. While I wasn't seriously there, it kinda felt like I was! I love technology. Philip opened Kevin's and my gifts, too. I can't wait to use my new label maker!! Kevin got "The Hangover," and I am sure we will be enjoying that flick over and over again. :)

We didn't get too carried away with gifts for the kids this year. First, they aren't going to remember. Second, they don't need anything! We have way too many toys as it is. Oh, and they have a birthday next month, too. Yikes...one year old.........

I haven't been out of my house at all since I got home from work on Tuesday. I can't wait to go to work.

I hope you enjoy our pictures from Christmas!
