We left late Thursday night and made the hour and a half drive to my parents house. On Friday my mom decided she just had to go workout, so Scott and I dropped her off and went to pick up my dad who was just getting back into town from Florida. We decided to run to Wal-Mart and get the groceries on moms list while she was in class. TERRIBLE IDEA. Of course we got half the wrong stuff and ended up making ANOTHER trip to Wal-Mart. We spent most of the day Friday out and about and most of the Saturday hanging out at home. We rented The Grace Card (AWESOME!) and Horrible Bosses (TERRIBLE!) My dad taught Scott how to cook pop corn the old fashioned way in a pan on the stove and it was soooo good! We opened gifts at my parents on Saturday night since we were heading to Scott's parents Sunday morning early. We got up Sunday and we were off. Scott's mom always fixes a great Christmas breakfast and my mom had sent some homemade cinnamon rolls. We opened gifts and just relaxed the rest of the day. We got home late Monday and, thanks to me starting the process on Thursday before we left, we didn't have many Christmas decorations left to take down. We went today and had Christmas with Scott's grandparents here in LR, so now we are officially done with Christmas.
We cooked to much, ate to much, and laughed WAY to much but it was GREAT. What makes it even better is that no one got the stomach bug this year. I got it Christmas day last year and it pretty much ruined Christmas for me.
Mom and Dad opening their presents. Please ignore the fact that my dad has on a "wife beater."
New blankets. I think my parents actually bought these so that would have a decent blanket when they came to see us.
Oliver loved opening presents
Eliza-Grace playing with toys and thinking about opening some more.
So our niece got a blow up donkey (RODY) for Christmas. After finding out it would hold up to 400 lbs, we all took a ride on it. Below are the only pics I got and they just happen to be of my crazy husband.
Something else to add to Scott's collection of Razorback stuff.
My father-in-law opening his gifts
Eliza-Grace reading to Uncle Scott.
Fiesta Dinner plates! This stuff is addictive.

New gloves to replace the ones that were stolen from our street corner while running one Saturday morning a couple months ago.
Finally scored a rain jacket. I have been needing for for about a year now.
