We returned from our Christmas trip yesterday evening and spent the day catching up on laundry, getting flu shots, and emptying the china cabinet in preparation for the floor to go in tomorrow morning.
Now to back up a little!
Genie had a great time at her gymnastics "competition". She got to perform her routines on the bar, floor, vault (well at this age they use a tall mat not an actual vault), and beam. All the kids who participated received a medal and their "scores" at the end. I do have some pictures. My digital camera broke at the gym (just in time for Christmas) but I have some on the video camera which I left in St. Louis.
Santa made an early visit to our house on Saturday morning to leave a new DVD player for T (along with a new Dora movie), a game boy and game for G, and a new game boy game a sparring gear for E. The intended purpose was to make the trip easier but G, as much as she has begged for a game boy for months, just wanted to watch T's Dora video. We made Christmas cookies at Grandma's on Sunday and then DH and I got to go out shopping and dinner and a movie all by ourselves! Monday was "midnight mass" at 5pm LOL and then dinner and a gift exchange at great grandma's. It was really nice to see everyone.
Christmas morning came early! The kids seemed pleased with their gifts. T is having a great time with her piano and puzzles, and E has spent a good portion of the day putting together bionicles. G, well, lets just say I completed the Disney Cinderella game boy game in the car yesterday and married my Prince.
