Christmas Day was fantastic...I woke up way before Richard did cause I was waiting to get online using the web cam to see the granddaughters. But that didn't come about cause as I was waiting for my daughter to call me or get online. By the time she called the girls' had already opened all their gifts. I was a little disappointed cause I really wanted to see them open gifts. But I did get to see the girls on the web cam a while later. They were so busy with their gifts from Santa and Uncle Josh.
Richard woke up and got settled in and I handed him his presents from Misti & Chad, Brandi, Robert & girls and me. Some of the gifts from me he already knew and vice a versa. We bought tees at WDW for each other and just put them away for Christmas. But there were a few things that Richard didn't know about. Some stocking stuffers and another tee. We opened up Chad & Misti's gift, it came from Sicily, and they bought us 2 magnets. One says Sicilia and the other says Cantania. Really cool gifts. We like our magnets. Then we opened up the box of gifts from Brandi, Robert & girls. They got us Dove chocolates, crossword puzzle books (for me), a wooden jewelry box that Brandi made when she was at Lakeridge RV Resort this past summer, 2007, Richard got a musical tie, which will be a decoration. We also got $25 each so I bought me a purple Mickey Mouse 3/4 sleeve tee and Richard bought him a Year of a Million Dreams zippered sweatshirt. All was fantastic and very thoughtful. I gave Richard his gifts from me and put my gifts on the couch. I got my camera and took several pictures. Richard got a Goofy xmas hat that has Goofy ears on the sides and it lights up. There is a jingle bell on top of the hat. We had a fantastic xmas. I had turned on the xmas lights in the rv and turned on the xmas tree by switching from the Off position to the On position. *S*

We got all cleaned up and got dressed and headed over to our friend's rv to give them their little gift. It wasn't much but I thought the gift was real cute when I saw it. We were suppose to head to the movies but we missed the first and second showing cause we stayed and talked and talked. By 2:45pm, we left to head to the movies for the 3:30pm showing of Bedtime Stories with Adam Sandler. But when we left and got on the road towards Downtown Disney, we both said we were hungry. We wanted to go to Chili's. They were closed. So we got back on the Interstate and headed towards US Hwy. 192 where the Red Lobster was. Nope, closed. OK. Now we had to make a decision. Go to Angel's Seafood Buffet, All You Can Eat, or go to Golden Corral. Golden Corral was cheaper. The food was excellent. We were full by the time we got done eating and waiter was fantastic. We headed out and decided to head home. I was so tired. We got home and I went to sleep. The night before I didn't get much sleep so it hit me. I slept for a little while. We were suppose to go back over to our friend's rv to visit but I just couldn't stay awake. So I slept for a little bit. I felt much better when I woke up. However, I did miss a call from our daughter who is over in Sicily. The rest of the evening we watched tv.
This is our decorated table in the living room and in the background is our little Christmas tree.
Christmas was wonderful. But I was a bit sad cause I missed my kids and grandkids.
Almost all of the xmas decorations are put away. I put them away yesterday, 12-2-08. I've never been one to keep decorations for days after xmas. I have the little tree still out and our xmas frog. In a few days they will be put away.
Merry Christmas to all. Happy New Year too!
