Very Christmas!

This year Graidy said Very Christmas instead of Merry Christmas. Our Christmas was very Christmas-like. It has been a while since I've written Santa a letter, set out cookies for him, and sang "You Better Watch Out". We moved into our first home just 4 days before Christmas. Which in my mind was the perfect Christmas present for our family. It feels so good to finally be back into a routine, there is a place for everything, and everyone. Graidy had so much fun this year, it really is quite magical having child "believe".

We did a lot of fun things in December like going to a Grizzlies game, riding The Polar Express Train up in Midway, seeing the Zoo lights at Hogle Zoo, and well we moved!

Graiden's favorite toy was defiantly his Bey Blades he is obsessed. I have to hear all day long "Mom, wanna battle with me?" He sings the full theme song to the show and only uses the "Pegasus" one which does the "star blast attack!" Everyone else has to use the bad guy ones. At least he has his priorities in line. Scottlin's favorite has to be her lullaby Sea Horse she has slept with it every night since Christmas along with her Baby Alive doll every time she sees it she just screams at it like she is talking to her. My favorite toy was the Cricut Cake machine that Brett got me. His favorite was the fact that we are going to Arizona to see a Red Wings came in a couple weeks. When he opened his package of peanuts from me he wasn't to thrilled until I said "I think you'll need those on the plane for that Red Wings game in Arizona" He literally tackled me into a box of Ferrero Rocher chocolates, ouch.

The house is coming along, so far so good. I do love it out here in Eagle Mountain, so close to everything I need but far away from all the noise. The first night we were here Gray kept walking around saying "Look this floor! I need my friends in here to play!" which reminded me of the movie Step Brothers with Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly when the make their beds into a bunk bed and they pace back and forth "Look at all of this floor space for activities and stuff!"

School started today, I really thought about taking the semester off, but I feel like I still have so far to go. "I think I can, I think I can." I got all registered and started, now I'm feeling a little excited about it, I know weird.
