CHRISTMAS 2009

It has been a strange Christmas. Will had to leave for TN yesterday to cover bowl game events and the bowl game itself on Sunday. We spent Christmas apart and alone and it was very odd. I had spaghetti for my Christmas dinner and Will had a hamburger from the hotel bar.

We have both been busy this month and neither of us took time to buy any presents. We went to the mall Thursday afternoon and picked out a gift for ourselves. I got a watch and it came with a bracelet. Will got a PSIII game and some kind of DVD series off the Pittsburg Steeler’s website. We looked for a Cocky statue at the mall so Will could pay up on his bet, but we couldn’t find one. Don’t worry, I wont forget about it.

Will recently asked me to describe my favorite childhood Christmas memory. We had great Christmases every year. We never went without. We always ate tons of food with both sides of the family and I had lots of cousins to play with. I loved to get up around 3am Christmas morning to see what Santa brought for myself, Adam, and Kelli and then going back to bed. I also loved to see what Santa left in our stockings.

This is just a lot of rambling, isn’t it? I guess I need to start cleaning the house. I’ve already called “not it” with regard to taking the Christmas decorations down. I put them up so I volunteered Will to take them down.

Hope everyone had a great Christmas! What is your favorite Christmas memory?
