We Believe

This was my Christmas surprise! I had no idea that Shane was planning this. He had my whole family in on it. We went to my parents house for Christmas morning, and he told me that my dad had a surprise in the garage. I went to look and at first I thought "my Dad bought a Hummer?", but it only took a second for me to realize that it was mine and then Shane handed me the keys. What a great surprise! Now I just have to get used to the idea of me driving a tank! It is huge! Thanks, Shane, I love it!

Christmas has come and gone, but we have enjoyed every single second. We had a great Christmas Eve...we started out at Breakfast with Santa, and then made our way to the Belliston family party {complete with dinner, games and Santa--thanks, Candy, it was fabulous!}, and then came home to make cookies and write letters for Santa, open our pajamas, and watch "Hairspray" to wind down and get ready for bed. There was no excitement lost, let me tell you! By the end of the evening we were all exhausted--but it's a great feeling!

This morning we were up at 7:30 {which was earlier than I expected}, spoiled by Santa, opened gifts, and made our way to the Partridge home for Christmas morning with my family. Everybody was there, and that was great because we only got to have Norm and Rachael for a couple of hours before they had to be to the airport to get back to New Jersey. {We will miss you guys so much!} It has been a fantastic Christmas and I'm sad that it is over.

The great news of the day {well, part of the greatness of the day}...my mom and dad gave me a new camera, so no more blurry pictures, YAY!
