Smith Family Christmas!

We got to my parents' house Thursday afternoon. Mom and dad were there for just a short bit before heading out for some last minute shopping! They came home with a Wii. Emily and Adam arrived shortly after us. The fun began! We went to the 5pm candlelight service at church and then went back to mom and dad's for dinner. Jamie and Keith arrived sometime after we got back from church. Every year mom puts together a combination of things to eat-crab legs, shrimp, cheese and crackers, veggies and usually some kind of soup. It was so delicious! After a night full of fun on the Wii every body turned in for the night. So far there is still room in that house for all of us even with our kids. It was like a slumber party! Christmas morning we all woke up and mom made us a breakfast casserole. We opened gifts. It was a blast watching the kids open their gifts and enjoy them. We are so thankful for everything that was given to us. Thanks everybody! Friday evening Emily and Adam's family went home. After a couple games of Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader and one game of The Allowance Game between myself & Brian and Keith & Jamie, we decided it was time for a movie. It was already getting late. I don't think I made it through the whole movie before giving in and going to bed. Saturday we were pretty lazy! Brian and I got packed up and went home after getting Austin back from his dad's (he went Friday @4 until Saturday @11). What a great couple of nights with family. I am so grateful for each of them! Merry Christmas everyone!
