Christmas 2011

Christmas this year was very different than any other year.  We were unable to go North for Christmas so we spent it in warm sunny Florida.  Joan, Bob, (Jason's parents), and Derek came here to celebrate with us.
This was the first year that I did not get to see any of my family.  Not going to lie, I cried.  I cried on Christmas Eve. I cried on Christmas Day.  Don't get me wrong it was a great weekend, there was just something that was missing, without my family.

On Christmas Eve Jason did yard.... somehow that doesn't seem "normal."  Christmas Eve is supposed to be filled with last minute wrapping and cookie baking.
Aside from all the stuff that didn't happen or the people I didn't see, I had a great Chritmas with my boys and my in-laws.

Christmas Eve we open one present each.  Joan got all of matching Pjs for us to wear on Christmas morning.

Me and all my boys!

Yep, we have on matching pjs for Christmas Morning.

After our family photos we opened stockings, then had breakfast.  Homemade Cinnamon Rolls.

Gavin was peaking to see if the cinnamon rolls were done

That is the face that made Christmas wonderful
