Christmas run-around!

Christmas run-around! That's what my Christmas was like this year! We went from place to place, house to house! It was exhausting but so much fun, and the kids seemed to be OK with it so I was all on board with that! Nothing makes for a good holiday than the kids behaving like angels! Christmas Eve started with lunch with the Pool's (my parents and the "new" Pool's, Chad and Krista) at Boulder Station (gotta love Vegas right??) then off to the in-law's house for dinner and festivities! My mother-in-law doesn't know the meaning of a few presents! She must have had at least 30 things under the tree for Hunter alone! I am buried in toys and "stuff"! I'll be honest, it almost didn't fit into the back of the Trailblazer! Crazy, I know! Jeff and I played Santa and I fell asleep somewhere after 11 pm but before midnight! Then, up at 6:45 a.m. with coffee in hand to open our presents. My parents drove over and watched the kids open up their gifts and after I made a huge breakfast! It was great, but not over quite yet! We still had to do dinner at their house and, yes, open more presents! I am gifted out! It was a fabulous season and I was glad we were here and not living far away, but next year I think I will invite everyone over Christmas morning to share gifts and make a big breakfest and be done with it! We'll see, but at least I have a whole year to plan my attack!
