CHRISTMAS!!!!

This Christmas was so fun! On Christmas eve Rus, Kam, and I went to a Christmas eve party at my aunt Jenn's house. We had a "dutch" present and inside it were Pj's for the kids. We ate, visited, and sang christmas songs while my grandpa played his guitar. Kam got to show off some of her gymnastics tricks too. On Christmas morning we were with my mom. Our step brothers were with us too. We got up at 6:00 am and couldn't wait to see what Santa brought us. For Rustyn his main present from Santa was a new red bike, he has wanted one for a while now and was so excited to finally get it. Kamryn's main gift from Santa was a CD player with CDs. She blasted Hannah Montana, Camp Rock, and Jonas Brothers all morning! I got a pink camera!! I loved it and I am starting to understand how to work it. We all got what we wanted and got dressed in our new Chrismas outfits and headed to my aunt Dawn's house. We had our annual Christmas brunch and got to open a really special present this year. Before my grandma died, her, my mom, and my aunts put together something really special for the grandkids because they knew my grandma wouldn't be around for Chrismas. Each grandkid got a Build-a-Bear that had a recording of my grandma telling us how much she loved us and to remember her always. It was very special and something we all will keep forever. Later that day my dad came and picked us up and we went to my grandma Diane's house. For a while my dad kept telling us to not be disappointed with the gifts he was going to give us because it wasn't much and to not get our hopes up. So when we got to her house my dad set a big present in front of each of us. When we opened it we saw really nice travel bags. And in side them we found TONS of presents. My dad had tricked us!! Kam got DS and tons more things (which i can't remember). My brother got an awesome remote control car it was so fast, but it broke so we are going to exchange it today, and other stuff that I can't remember. And I got a new phone, gift certificate to one of my favorite stores, shoes, and more! But one of the bigger gifts my dad gave all of us were tickets to Orlando Florida, and we will be going to DISNEYWORLD!!!!!!!!! We are so excited! We opened the rest of the gifts from family. I honestly can't remember what my brother and sister got, we have so much stuff I just can't keep track! But one of the presents I was excited with was the Brady Bunch show! I watched them that night and loved them. I love those shows. So if anyone likes the Brady Bunch give me a call and we can watch them together because I have plenty of episodes. Some gifts my dad got were The Dark Night, a picture of us three kids, a calendar from my brother, and gift certificate to a golf store. We all had a great Christmas!
