Christmas this year had lots of family, eating races, presents, and more family time. As you can see on the right hand side, we have lots of fun at our families homes. We play lots of games… This year it was a ping pong championship. Everybody in the family played and we did the entire braket thing, it turned out that in the end, my cousin Tyler won. This entire thing happened at my Aunts house, at the Olsons Chrismas Party. The Olson Christmas is on the 23rd, so Christmas for us starts on the 23rd every year. On Christmas Eve we went to the other side of the family- The Charboneau’s. The Charboneau’s Chrismtas is held at my other aunts house in St. Michael. The drive gets really annoying with Tanner and Aria (my siblings) screaming at eachother the entire ride about what station to listen to. When we finally got to their house we saw all of our cousins and all went downstairs to go play some Grand Theft Auto on the XBOX. They just got this new 65″ plasma in their living room- so their old 70″ rear projection screen TV is down in the basement for XBOX which is pretty sweet. We played that for a while, then ate, then opened presents. This year I got a lot of money, and only two real presents- Apples to Apples, and pajamas. :] We used to get pajamas every year from our great grandma Irene, but she died this past year, so to keep her memory alive somebody gave us pajamas saying they were from grandma. After presents everybody starting singin’ Karaoke upstairs on their extensive karaoke set-up. Everybody sang for along time… we got home at 12:32 am. When everybody got home- we all said Merry Christmas to everybody, then went to bed.
So I wake up to Aria this morning at 7:45 saying comon… wake up so we can open presents. Comon Taylor! After opening presents and sitting around the house I went into bed and had a 5 hour nap. No kidding- it was actually 5 hours. I was working for christmas all week, and didnt get very much sleep- so it felt really good to sleep. Hope everybody has had a great Christmas! There is only 40 minutes left of it- enojoy it while it lasts!
