A few months ago, if someone had told me I was going to have a great Christmas I would’ve said “yeah, right” and then moved on. But I have to admit that my Christmas was great. I went to see Jeremy’s aunt and uncle in Modesto. I’d never met these people, heck, Jeremy hadn’t even seen them since he was little, but they welcomed me right into their family and treated me like one of their own. It was truly wonderful. And I ate so much food I still feel full two days later.

It also seems Christmas had a theme this year, at least in regards to gifts from my mother-in-law, sister-in-law and aunt (who happens to be my MIL’s sister). That theme was pink. From Molly (my SIL) I got a pink cutting board and a pink utinsil holder; from my aunt I got a pink Better Homes and Gardens Cookbook (it’s the breast cancer awareness edition) and from my MIL I got a pink zippered hoodie, pink socks and a pink turtleneck. And of course, because she spoils me to no end, my MIL also got me…..

A PINK KITCHENAID!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love pink. :) Although it does feel like they are telling me I need to learn how to cook.

Along with all those gifts, I got a really soft fleece blanker with the Army seal, a cute brown top, a cute red tank top, a Walmart gift card, a glass bear, some bracelets, a beautiful velvet covered journal and a few other little things from my parents and sister. My MIL and father-in-law also got me an eagle, globe and anchor charm for my charm bracelet. That’s all I can remember right now. I got home so late last night that everything is still in the basket I brought it home in. And it’ll all probably stay there until Friday when I finally have time to look at it all and put it away.

All in all, it was a great Christmas. :) Everyone feel free to post what you got for Christmas in the comments.
