“It smells old”

Merry Christmas, everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful holiday.

Christmas! December 25, 2012 69

Mine was amazing! I got off of work on Christmas Eve and drove to my sissy’s house. We had dinner and then watched White Christmas. Bing Crosby is such a babe! After that I turned on the A Christmas Story for my nieces.

After all the kiddies fell asleep, we brought up all of the presents. WOAH! There were so many. Then at 8:30 a.m. everyone rushed upstairs and we started opening our prezzies. I love Christmas – I was spoiled rotten and so was everyone in my family.
