We survived Christmas

As much as I love Christmas, it is always nice to get things back to normal. Christmas Eve was very nice. We spent it at my parent's house with our traditional Christmas Eve dinner and going and looking at lights in Chandler, the famous street that every house has decorated. This year we added a little program to remember the true meaning of Christmas and it was great! Christmas morning, Drew woke up at 7:30 and saw the tool workshop Santa brought him. He was so happy. Kylee slept in till almost 8 and was excited to play with the screws. We opened our presents and then headed to my parents and opened presents over there. A few of my siblings were missing so it seemed small but we had fun. We went to Ryan's brothers house later that day and ended the night with laundry and packing. That is the only bad thing about traveling the day after Christmas. You have to do laundry and pack on Christmas but we survive every year. We headed up to the freezing land of UT. Man was it cold but we had fun. Drew loved sledding and playing in the snow. He begged every day to go outside. Kylee liked the snow till she felt it with her hand and realized how cold it was. She was done after that. It is always nice to take a vacation and see family, oh and to eat my aunt's yummy Chinese food, but it is always nice to come home. My kids don't sleep well unless they are in their own beds. I am still trying to get the routine back to normal, hopefully by next week. Kylee still thinks it is OK to only take a 1.5 hour nap. Anyways, sorry no pictures but I wanted to get this posted before January came and went!
