Christmas and Adrianna's Birthday!!!

Well the holiday season this year was full of exciting things. From having Christmas parties with Mackenzie and my play groups, to the older girls coming out, to decorating cookies and gingerbread houses with the grandparents, my birthday, and of course Christmas! The holiday season started out on the 19th when the girls went over to my parents house and spent the night and decorated Christmas cookies and a great looking gingerbread house with my younger brother and Mackenzie of course had to help with the cookies!Then on the 20th my best friend threw me a birthday party and let me tell ya that was very interesting. From the decorations being GHETTO to my cake looking so funny I couldn't believe I was the one that made it!LOL! Then that night she took me out with another friend who just had her birthday and let me tell you Sunday was not a nice day for me! :) Hangover city... thank god Gary was home! So on the 24th my actual birthday the girls, Gary and I all went over to my parents house and had a dinner of my choice that my mom makes for me each year! (Thanks mom!!!) It was fun being around all the family and just hanging out and having a great time! CHRISTMAS was so much fun! All of us woke up together and had a blast opening gifts. Mackenzie opened hers like a little lady and had so much fun with the dump truck w/ lego's that Santa brought her. :) Then of course we went right back over to my parents and I helped my mom (somewhat) cook dinner and we opened gifts there and I got my awesome electric skillet I wanted (lol) and some other awesome things.... and of course Mackenzie got some really cool things from Uncle's and grandma and grandpa but duh what else would she have received! But just like tradition has it we ended the night with a long game of poker and then headed home! So today (28th) we took the girls to the airport to head home! :( It seems like its gonna be forever till we see them again! But only till the end of March and then they will be right back YAY! But all in all it was a wonderful time having the girls and Gary home at the same time! :) Lots of help around the house and with the monster baby! Well here is a slide show of our holiday events! Enjoy!
