Whew! We Made It!

Made it through Christmas!

Greg's parents came out for about 10 days or so and boy did we keep busy! We went to go see the Dancing with the Stars Tour down in San Jose. Even Greg was pleasantly surprised at how good it was. One of the high lights was that we actually can now say that we have seen Wayne Newton live! HAHA. (He was singing and not dancing) However, poor Greg didn't get to see Julianne Hough. Her cute brother was there instead. :-) We went out to the wine country and his dad was kind enough to buy me a couple of yummy bottles! We hit San Fran one day and hopped on a boat tour of the bay and saw the old fort that is build under the Golden Gate Bridge.

Christmas itself went off without a hitch! I think Santa was MORE than generous this year considering we took off for an unexpected trip to Disney World in November! The kids had "the best Christmas EVER"! Pogo Sticks all around. Wii games, including the Dance Revolution that I am hooked on. Some good books. A bike ramp. New roller blades. An i-pod for Mom and weights for Dad. Oh. And did I mention the parrot?

Only downfall to Christmas here is no snow. Sure doesn't feel like Christmas no matter how many lights I put on the house. Or in the house. The green grass and blooming plants just throws me off. Oh well. The neighbors were feeling guilty because they have grown kids and don't always do lights outside anymore. But they said that house looked nice with all the lights up.

I still need to see about getting pictures off of Greg's computer and then I can post them. Check back later!
