My Break so far

I have had a great break so far. Lots of time with my Nephew Aiden. He is now 4 months old and weighs 11 pounds. He is a little guy but very cute. I love being home and being able to play with him and feed him and put him to bed when he is screaming.

Today was our family Christmas. This year it was at my parents house because my sister did not want to take the baby out if the weather was bad. It was supposed to snow but it didn’t. Oh well! I think I am probably the only person in Nebraska that wanted snow. It went pretty well and almost everybody was there. Good thing there was some snow outside.

I am now done with cleaning the house, well at least intense cleaning. I don’t have a lot planned for this next week. I leave for California with all of my family on December 29th. My whole family is My Mom, Dad, Sister, Brother, and Aiden (my sister’s baby.) We are all heading out for my Grandpa’s 80th birthday. My two uncles on my dad’s side and my grandpa all live in California. I don’t see them very often so I am very excited to go and see all of my relatives on my dad’s side.                     My backyard with all the wonderful snow.

I am excited about exchanging gifts on Christmas with my intimate family. I don’t exchange gifts at family Christmas so this is “real” Christmas.
