CHRISTMAS 2009

Well i have to admit i'm kind of sad that christmas is over. I'm always sad...actually the sad part is that it hit me the hardest when i went to starbucks today and realized they are no longer serving coffee in thier christmas cups. It's officially over now :( Anyway, christmas was...okay. My family flew in from Seattle (and my crazy dad drove the 26 hour drive so he could bring his motorcycle and my piano)! They were here for about two weeks and it was nice to see them...that will probably be the only time i see them all year unless i'm able to find time to fly up there. It was SO nice to have someone to occupy Morgan so Taylor and I could have a few moments to ourselves. We went out to dinner and a movie one night and did some christmas shopping together....other than that I was very busy with work. Christmas morning Morgan and I were both very sick...and it lingered for a couple of days so that put a damper on the holiday. I never EVER get sick, but the one time i do in over a year, it has to be Christmas!

So taylor, bless his heart, gave me Tup-o-ware for christmas this year. Will that man ever learn? I mean i know it's partially my fault because i didn't spell out exactly what i wanted this year, but....Tup-o-ware?? Oh taylor, you have so much to learn. He did make up for it slightly with some nice perfume....next year i'll make sure to write it all down for him, otherwise i may end up with the matching pack n' go plasticware!

Morgan had a good time on christmas...she really had the most fun helping everyone else unwrap their gifts. She is just growing up so fast. She can sing songs and speak in sentences, sort of...she'll say "momma go bye bye?" and "i apple juice"....oh and we can forget the occasional "Oh sh*t!"...not sure where she learned that (DADDY!). But we are working on that one ;)

Anyway, my parents have officially gone back to Seattle, the christmas decor has been put away, and starbucks is using thier boring old white and green cups...so holidays are behind us. But all in all it was a good christmas this year and I feel very blessed for all i have. I hope you all enjoyed the holidays as well...here's to 2010~!!
