Christmas 2008

This Christmas was wonderful. Michael spent Christmas Eve with his side of the family over at his Aunt & Uncle's and had a good time seeing everyone. Michael and I spent Christmas day with my family. My grandparents on my mom's side haven't came down for 2 years in a row. There was a big storm coming and they were afraid of not being able to get home. So it was disappointing that they weren't here. But we still had a great xmas. We went to my parent's house at 8:30am and opened presents. Mike & I got a lot of baby stuff, which is awesome. My mom and dad ordered me a big diaper pin that hangs on the wall with hooks. I wanted it really bad for the nursery but couldn't afford it. So I am super excited about it. My parents also got me a Hobo wallet. It's this awesome wallet that they sell at Takken's and it's amazing!! Michael got a lot of cool labrador stuff. We finally have art to hang in our living room. This year Mike and I decided not to buy each other anything because we are trying to save for the baby and pay stuff off. I made some homemade gifts this year. Lindsey and I made vinyl letter signs. They were really fun to make. Everyone seemed to like them.
We went home in the afternoon and took a nap. When we went back up to my parents for dinner we took the dogs with us. That was a mistake, lol. My dad usually deep fries the turkey every year however the wind was so bad this year that my mom baked it. Well he had all of the turkey grease set out from Thanksgiving and we forgot about it. The dogs found it out in the yard and went crazy. Zakk rolled in it and they all drank a bunch of it. We didn't realize until right before we left. When Mike got home, Zoey wanted to go to bed in her crate. Later that night we were getting ready for bed and there was a HUGE pile of vomit on the carpet right in front of her crate. It was full of turkey grease. We shampooed it twice and it won't come out. We have a large grease stain on our carpet now. I felt so bad for her. Lessoned learned, they won't be going to grandma's for a while. They get into too much trouble and chase my mom's cats.
