Small, short, and happy

Yesterday for Christmas it was nice, very short, my mom and I were only at my grandma's for 3 hours before my grandma started falling asleep at her chair and we had to leave. We had christmas dinner, ham, stuffing, and a lot of vegetables, no mash potatoes or rolls oh well. haha! We opened gifts, my mom got a vaccum, a t-shirt and I made her a plushie of Heath from the walking dead. She was really confused as to who it was, which made me feel a little...bad, because I felt like I messed up but I explained who it is, and she likes it (I think) My grandma got a container and a candle from my mom and I made her two little crochet Elvis ornaments, I thought they were cute. I don't know, I feel like I kind of need to stop making things for my family because...I get so anxious and then they are not always that impressed. Ugh. My grandma crocheted me a blanket, it is very beautiful, all my favorite colors like orange, grey, black and white. My mom got me an xbox 360 controller that I can use for playing games on my computer which I am super pumped about. And my mom put in my stocking some wax for my wax warmer they smell so amazing, a thing of peppermint bark which I haven't had since I was like 14 or something like that and then a cute little minecraft sheep because I love minecraft. It was really short, I feel like we were all guilty we couldn't do more for each other. It has been a REALLY rough year for my mom and I so it was kind of dimmed down this year. But it was okay, we were still together all three of us, happy, healthy, and most importantly together.

So next time you'll know to bring mashed potatoes and buns if you want them. Sounds like everyone had a nice time.

our family doesn't really work like that. We had NO idea what my grandma was making because she doesn't do it until the last minute. The only think my mom and I knew was the ham, we didn't know anything else.
