First Christmas together part 2

As I said in my earlier post I took zero pictures of our trip out to Oklahoma so there won't be that many. Christmas morning was sleepless. I felt like a little kid for some reason and kept waking up every hour, so needless to say I didn't sleep very well. At my house we usually wake up to open presents at 5 in the morning so we have time to get ready and go to Bartlesville. This time we didn't go to Bartlesville but we still woke up at 5 a.m. It took us a good hour and forty five minutes to unwrap all our presents. My parents made a yummy breakfast casserole that had eggs, bacon, biscuits, hash-browns and cheese! That's what the Townsend's made too. I guess it's a popular dish.

It was a little after 8 a.m. when we got to Geoff's house and the kiddos could hardly wait for us to get there so they could see what Santa brought them! It was so cute to see them run into the family room with smiles on their faces! They all knew which present was theirs because they ran right to them without hesitation. One of our nephews got excited about absolutely everything! He even got excited if it wasn't his gift. It was adorable! We all took turns opening one present at a time so that we could all see what every got and their reactions. We had to make sure they liked their gifts right?

The rest of the day we sat back and relaxed. That is something I have never done on Christmas. We are always going to grandparent's houses and opening more gifts and playing with cousins. Emily got "Just Dance,"which is my new favorite game....and Geoff's. Geoff usually did a lot better at it than I did! I might have to get that for his birthday. ;-)

The second part of our vacation we spent most of our time with the Townsends. They always had tons of candy and sweets laying around and I think I ate most of it. We played the wii a lot and board games. It was fun to hang out with Geoff's family although I felt bad because I was quiet most of the time. Even though I have known them my whole life practically it was awkward to be my silly self.

My Ker side had a Christmas party a few days after Christmas and it was a blast! A blast mostly because we played volleyball almost the entire time. We played boys against girls. The girls had mostly volleyball players on it but the boys were pretty good too. The girls did try to play by the rules though and the boys... not so much. It was still fun! I can't wait to have my volleyball class this semester!

I love volleyball socks and I think my daddy was making fun of me.....I don't know.....

After all the fun and excitement we played white elephant. Geoff got exactly what he needed!!

All the girls plus baby zach.

Unfortunately Everyone except Geoff and I got sick after our Christmas party! We think someone passed around the flu.
