Christmas 2011

Christmas was absolutely amazing this year! On Christmas Eve, I had to work but I got off soon enough to go to the Christmas Eve service at church. It was amazing! We sang Christmas songs while different people came up and read about the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ. Then we went home and prepared for bed. But Michaella and I did not go to bed for quite a while. I ended up going to bed much earlier than I usually do on Christmas eve because I had a cold and was very tired. My sister didn't get to sleep until about 5 in the morning but we managed to get up around 7:30 and we had to sit and wait until 8:00 just staring at the gifts underneath our beautiful Christmas tree. We kept on looking at the different presents guessing which one was what and and if we had gotten something special this year. Finally the time came to begin. We got the gifts out of our stockings! We each got a bottle of our favorite soda, our favorite candy bar, and a set of headphones! We all needed new headphones too. Michaella's were blue, Jonathan's were green, and mine were pink (of course). We then commenced with the gifts. We each take turns opening gifts. We all got big, soft, fluffy blankets! Jonathan got trucks and this huge John Wayne set and a Nintendo 3DSI. Michaella got a cell phone! She loves it but is a little disappointed because we don't have very good reception at our house. I got these awesome shoes and rings and rugs. The rug is in the shape of an owl and it is so cute! The entire day we spent time with each other and played with our new toys! Overall, Christmas was a success!
I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas!
