Anyway, I woke up around 8:00 AM on Christmas and nudged Sean awake. After I woke Mike up, we opened the presents under our tree. Sean bought me an iTunes gift card, Up In The Air on blu-ray, a Nintendo Wii, an extra Wii Remote and Nunchuk, and two games: Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Super Mario Bros. We set up the new system and washed the dishes (because who wants to leave dirty dishes in the sink on a holiday?) before going to my parents' house at 11:00 AM.
We ate a yummy brunch and then opened more presents. My grandma gave me various knickknacks, my stepmom and dad bought me a Walmart gift card, and my sister bought me Diary of a Wimpy Kid and Tooth Fairy on blu-ray (it was a two-disc set...). We then played a quick board game before going to Sean's parents' house around 2:00 PM, where we opened even more presents (Sean's dad gave me Telestrations, and his parents bought me a nice watch and a bottle of wine).
After eating lunch, we exchanged white elephant gifts (I ended up with the present I bought, a rip off bikini, which I gave to Sean). We then played Scene It? Star Trek, as well as Telestrations, which ended up being funnier than I expected. Around 7:00 PM, we went home. Sean played with his new camera, and I played the Wii.
Christmas didn't end there, though. A few days later, I bought myself a Nintendo DS Lite, a DS Lite Zip Case, and four games: Golden Sun, Golden Sun: The Lost Age, Golden Sun: Dark Dawn, and New Super Mario Bros. Sean bought himself gifts, too.
It was, among many feelings, sad Mom wasn't here to celebrate with us, but all in all, it was a good Christmas.
I got a Wii for Christmas too! I highly recommend Super mario Space Galaxy.. It's awesome!! Expensive, unless it's used, but very fun and cool!
ReplyDeleteYour mom was there in spirit. :)
We got a new Wii too! I'm totally whipping my kids butts on table tennis and archery, but that's because I'm mean and show no mercy.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I'm glad you had such a fun family filled holiday! Loves!
