Day three....Christmas Day! I awoke to presents under the tree, I guess Santa had been there, but I forgot to leave him milk and cookies; I hope he still left me everythink I asked for. Ok, this is a complete fib, we didn't even have a tree up and Ando and I didn't get anything for each other.
We first headed to my parents house for some breakfast and present opening with my parents and some siblings. I got my parents a web cam for Christmas this year so they could see me when they talked to me all the way in New York. Ando and I helped them install it on their computer so all of the hard work would be done for them too. I must say I didn't think they would be very receptive to the web cam. My parents aren't very good when it comes to technology and change, but for some reason they really like this. They chat me up all the time now.
After my parents we headed over to Ando's family for some more gift giving and breakfast. All the boys got some remote control helicopters. There weren't enough batteries to go around though. Flying had to be done in turns.
After hanging out at Ando's parents house we headed to his aunt and uncles for his christmas night festivities. To put a perspective on the night last year we went through 2 cases of champagne. I'm not sure how much we consumed this year, but again I am pretty sure it was too much. I was playing with children and had Ando's second cousin sitting on my lap all night. According to Ando this means that my biological clock is ticking. I am not agreeing with him on this one.
We left the Christmas party to go hang out with our friends at a bar, but we never made it there. I then proceeded to call a bunch of people and complain about this fact, but in hind sight I think this was a good thing. I really didn't need any more to drink.

Opening presents with Ando's family.
We are trying to decide which gift we want to pick in the pile.
This blog has caused me many headaches to write; I don't have a child on the way to cause even more.
