Christmas

Christmas... Let's see if I can remember it all....

Christmas weekend was full of helping mom. My whole freakin' 4 day weekend and I didn't get to sleep in at all... Oh well... This weekend... lol

So Christmas Eve I went over and helped mom, of course. Was supposed to bring home the items to make the Broccoli Casserole, but I forgot. Silly me...

Christmas day, went over to mom's at about 10:45a. Helped her finish up the bits of cooking that were left. Then we opened presents. Sean, Ally, Matt, Stacy, Mom, and I opened our presents together, Josh being the almighty grump he is, decided to not join us because "it's too crazy in there"... Opening of presents was pretty uneventful. I got a Beatles Let It Be t-shirt from Stacy, a gift card to JCPenney from Sean, Ally, & Matt, and a gift card to Victoria's Secret from Josh. Karen had gotten me a nice pair of earrings, a gift card to Jiffy Lube, and a very gracious check. (Of which I hope to use on clothes!) And last but not least Mom got me a jewelry making kit, and years 1-4 of Harry Potter.
We all just kinda chilled out til dinner was ready. Then we ate, mom made way too much food as usual. But it was delicious. After all of this excitement Ally and I took Matt, Chocolate, and Rosie for a walk around the neighborhood. When we got back I was pooped, was falling asleep on the couch. So Stacy and I headed back home, where we took a nap. mmmm turkey filled tummy naps... lol I thought that with Stacy and I leaving that it would make it easier for Sean/Ally/Matt to leave earlier since Ally had been complaining of not feeling well in the morning. But they didn't, oh well, ya know?
So that's all that happened... not much to tell... Oh yeah dad called in the midst of the present openings so didn't really get a chance to say more than Merry Christmas.

Christmas Party

So, one post right after another...lol. Guess thats what happens when you have no work to do.

Mom's company was having an end of the year/Christmas party, she asked me to go with her. I said I would love to go. So, then came the task of figuring out what to wear. After a trip to Ross, we found a perfect pantsuit for me.

The company paid for a hotel room at the Marriott Marina Hotel. We were lucky enough to get a bay view, and boy oh boy was the view gorgeous. Here are a few pictures of the view.

Having fun after dinner I decided to take a shot of mom and I.

After dinner, I was dragged upstairs to dance. I enjoyed doing that for awhile. The DJ was horrible, no mixing skills whatsoever!!!! Once I was all danced out mom and I went out onto the back of the ship and took some pictures. This one is of her and I.

And the last pictures are of a sailboat that had Christmas lights on it.

I had a great time and am grateful mom chose me to go with her.
