~Christmas Was Awesome!~

I know everyone is probably writing a similar discussion but I thought my friends would want to know anyway. The Christmas Eve party was amazing, my husband and I both won $25 gift cards-one for Zaxby's and one for the movies. That will be a good date night for us. =) Then Christmas for the children was awesome as well. My kids got so many gifts-thanks to our church. They are super happy. My son even said this is the best Christmas ever! I was glad they are happy. Today we are home and relaxing, it has been a busy week! The kids are enjoying their gifts and I am enjoying mine too! I got an adult coloring book that I am excited about-I already started a picture in it, a reading book, perfume and some make up. =) How was your Christmas?

@fishtiger58 I don't go out on New Year's any more either as I like to stay in the house and enjoy it here if I am awake to see the New Year come in.@fishtiger58

@LovingMyBabies Back to my normal quiet life. I don't go out for New Years, I leave that to the young.

How wonderful that you and your husband both won gift certificates and the children received presents from the church. My Christmas was wonderful and I received a lot of presents as did my animals. I love watching them when they receive something new.

I bought an adult coloring book several months ago; anything to try to de-stress. It's funny, but I was just talking to someone the other night about how Zaxby's are starting to pop up everywhere. I had never heard of them a couple of months ago.

@LovingMyBabies Now I am curious to try them out. But they sound pretty expensive.

@AmbiePam I love my coloring book! It really helps relax me and I love how my first picture turned out. =) I am slightly in love with Zaxby's but I cannot afford it without a gift card.

Aww - I'm glad you guys had a super Christmas! I know it's been a tough year, so I'm glad the year is ending with awesomeness for you guys! We had a lovely Christmas, for the most part. It's all special for the kids - and we try to make it magical for them.

@much2say Thank you very much! It was such a good day. =) You are absolutely right, the whole year was pretty rough until the end of the summer-then God just took over and changed everything for us! It is amazing. I am so glad you had a good Christmas as well. =-)

So fun that everyone was included. Moms and dads need gifts too. Take it easy. I have never heard of Zaxby's.

@GardenGerty Yeah it was really nice. =) Zaxby's is a fast food place with amazing chicken and fries. But they are a little expensive.

I really had a very nice Christmas. I got some gloves, some notes to write short letters on, some chocolates, a big lavender cachet, some house socks, some shoes, a big stuffed frog(love frogs), and LED shadow box. Very nice.

Glad that you had a wonderful Christmas. :) Ours was good, just quiet. They've seemed kind of quiet for years, now. Guess I'm getting older. ;p

Glad to see they are happy with their gifts. I got money and gift cards from everyone but they will come in handy. A few for local restaurents, Pizza Pizza, and Subway. I figured for work I would use them for when I can't make my lunch.
