Everyone knows that family is the most important thing in my life. I am so incredibly blessed to have such an amazing family. It was frightening to think about how little I would see my family once we made the move to Roseville, but in all honesty, I think I see them more now than I did when I lived in Victorville...especially my mom.
Because of Brady's work schedule, we are unable to make the trek down to Southern California to be with family this year for the holidays. Well, my parents took that into their own hands and came up for the weekend to visit us. It was wonderful!!! The kids had a blast baking with Nana, and watching football with Papa. Last night, they got to open their presents from Nana and Papa, and let me tell you, I don't think I've ever seen them more excited about the gifts they received. It was so neat to see them jumping up and down, yelling and screaming about the special surprises that Nana and Papa had for them.
Unfortunately, my parents had to leave first thing this morning to head back home...to all that snow! I am so sad to see them go...I miss them dearly, and it's only been an hour and a half since they left.
Christmas will be a bit lonely this year, as this is the first year that we haven't been around ANY family for holidays. But, I'm sure the kids will keep us hopping. I can already envision myself putting Star Wars Legos together for the rest of my life, once Kieran opens his presents. And, of course, there will be My Little Pony to play with, and Bakugans to transform. It will be a busy day, I'm sure! Let's hope it starts sometime after 4:00 in the morning...maybe we could even hope for daylight before anyone gets us out of bed! I doubt it, but there's always hope!
May each of you be blessed this holiday season with my love, peace, friendship, and family!
