Another magical trip

Even though it was a short week at work, it was pretty hectic getting to Christmas.  Wednesday night was my dad’s Christmas party, Thursday was lunch at the Palace, with a quick hello to Jos, then back to my grandma’s for Christmas eve dinner.  Brandon was so happy to have my mom join us for lunch.  He asked her if she was coming with us, and when we told him yes, he said, “Then I will make room for you,” and started swiping all the stuff on the seat in between the carseats to the floor.  We had a yummy dinner, and we made it to 11 o’clock before opening presents.  Normally, we wait until midnight, but with the two little ones, it’s been hard.  It still put us home around 1am.  We took Peyton, while my parents kept Brandon.  My mom drove him down in the morning to finish opening presents at home.  Opening presents with both kids makes it difficult to keep track of who got what gift.  I have to constantly remind Brandon to check who got him what.  I always think I will remember or tuck in the gift label into the toy, but even then, when he opens the gift, the tag is long gone.  He got lots of his favorite – Cars toys, and Legos.  Peyton got fun things, too; she wanted to play with the first thing she opened.  She was better at opening presents compared to Brandon when he was her age.   She was not delicate like he was.  After we finished opening the gifts, we headed off to Kenny’s to deliver presents, then started our drive.  We were off to see Dave’s parents, which meant we got to go back to the park!  We ended up going two days and stayed all day long even though we were spending the night close by.  The parks were pretty crowded, so we didn’t get as much done as our last trip.  It was nice though to go around and Besides the complicated driving techniques, it is also necessary to make a http://www.cbs.tc/?buy=6591 cialis tadalafil canada safe deal.

I had to work today, but it’s only one day, then I can go back to preparing for Peyton’s birthday.  We are having the party in two shifts to be able to accomodate the guests.  I was so excited about her favors, which I ordered last minute, and they arrived today!  I didn’t have to pay for extra shipping because they are coming from only 10 minutes away!  Plus I got free shipping as a bonus!  Dave is at home with the kids today, and I wonder how much he’ll be able to get done!!
