Christmas!

Sorry for the long awaited christmas post. I had been busy as a bee with work, exhausted and tired from all of the work I have been doing. I have been forgetting to write in my blog, and since I value this blog so much I will include this post. Since it was an amazing experience and someday when I forget all my memories this would be one I want to remember. 

This christmas I wanted my mom and grandma to become to Red Deer but it did not happen that way. We ended up going down to Lethbridge because my mom thought that my grandma would not travel too well and after seeing her. I agree her traveling would not have been the best. 

Anyways we drove down from Red Deer to Lethbridge, It was better anyways though since she had an extra bed. It was so nice going home though, I got to see Charlie, some of my friends and spend some valuable time with my family. 

Jesse and did not bring our presents to each other from lethbridge, but instead opened them up before we left. For christmas we both got each other car mats for our vehicles. Mine were pink camouflage, and Jesse's was Harley Davidson. I got him a heat/massage chair thing, he bought me a real leather purse and lastly he got me a blender. 

At home for christmas my mom got me a ton of cupcake things for my kitchen, like an apron, table runner and kitchen aid cover. She got me a grinch tablecloth (since I had told her thats what I wanted to start collecting). Mom got Jesse a model and a variety of hot sauce and socks. My grandma had gotten me this prayer book, again some kitchen things I would need and grandma got Jesse socks. 

While being in lethbridge though we of course did some of the things that were tradition, like going to the live nativity at my old church. The one thing that I did not like about the Nativity now is that they no longer allow the angels to go onto the roof of the church. It was so much more epic to watch it with the angels on the roof, than on a platform stage. But all in all I really enjoyed it. There was this old couple that stood in front of us and we held their blanket on them as their professional blanket holders for the night. 

I also got to hang out with my friend Jenna, I had been working hard so I decided to spend some cash on myself so I bought some shirts and a few sweaters since Red Deer is a lot more chilly than lethbridge. 

But coming back home was good. I really enjoyed it, I really needed it and it was a nice break from work. 

While at work we had a decorating door contest at work. Our group came in 3rd place for our door.
