Well, Christmas was not over for us on Thursday. On Friday I finished up some Christmas shopping with my sister and Finley as my family was getting together to celebrate Christmas at our house on Saturday. My mom and dad came down and Chris came back over to have our little Christmas party. My sister Dawn lives in Dallas and wasn't able to come up for Christmas this year. We had a good time. Finley received even more wonderful gifts from Santa and everyone. On Sunday when everyone headed home Finley had some down time to play with his new toys (notice the cute onesie he received from Erin, Jason and Lauren). On Sunday night we decided the Christmas season was officially over for us... mainly because their were more needles on the carpet than our Christmas tree... and we took down our decorations and all. It was time to look into to the approaching New Year and I like a fresh start including getting the house back to normal. There is always a little sadness with the cleaning up from Christmas... this year maybe a little more than usual as we are getting closer and closer to the reality that is deployment. We had a great Christmas (week) and are satisfied that we spent time with family and friends and most important, each other.
