Christmas

This year’s Christmas celebrations have been fun and more relaxing than they I have had in quite a long while!  We always squish so many get-togethers in that it often feels really hectic.  But it didn’t this year.

We had an awesome night with my side of the family on Christmas eve. 

I sent my dad’s gift on time and remembered to record the monkeys opening his gifts.

Christmas morning with the four of us was perfect (especially as Eric and I woke up at 7:30 – BEFORE the monkeys; well not including the midnight and 3:30 wake ups…)

And Eric’s family Christmas was the perfect mix of traditional and untraditional.  When I have time to look at the photos, maybe the events will make the blog.

For now, here is a little help for those who got  a Christmas card from us, with very very very tiny font.  Or for those who do not wish to try to figure out the tune…

(I am NOT a singer.  This is for fun only!)

Sleigh bells ring – Two thousand and ten.

Here we are, singing again.

We’ll tell you our news.

We’ll try to amuse.

Walk you though another happy year.

Our family took a 5-week trip to Europe.

To celebrate 10 years for E and J.

The best 5 weeks we’ve had along the way.

Spent a night in a castle.

Corfu villa – what a hassle!

British Airways – such stress.

France and Disney – success!
