Merry Christmas all. Our Christmas started last night - my dad came down and we had dinner and exchanged gifts. For this first time since we moved into our house 3 years ago we actually decorated a bit for the holidays. Namely we hung some garland over the mantel and put two tiny little (fake) trees on either side of the fireplace. It's festive enough.
I gave DH his gift last night, and he was suitably surprised. He gave me season 1 of the Amazing Race on DVD, Hero on DVD and The City of Falling Angels - in addition to renewing my Economist subscription. I gave him a stuffed walrus and a gift card to Apple. Yes, it was enough for him to buy an iPod with, although I don't know if that's really what he wants. I think than when they start putting Intel chips into the Macs he's gonna want one of those.
Today we leave for Gramma & PopPop's house. We got them a new TV - but I don't know how we are going to fit it in the car. We had to put it in the front seat to get it home from the store. We didn't bother wrapping it... I guess we'll figure something out. We'll stay there overnight for Christmas dinner, then come home tomorrow night.
Monday we're off to DH's parents to see them and my brother- and sister-in-law. What fun!
There is entirely too much driving for us to do over the holidays. I hope that your holidays are a lot less travel-intense than ours!
Merry Christmas.
P.S. - Christine, that Lenox story is the most awful thing! Those bastards! Now two families have had their Christmas ruined (yours and the family whose ceramic thing you got!)
