We had a very nice day. There were six of us for Christmas this year. One of the girls commented that we finally filled all the chairs at our table. Melissa and Garrett were here and left at 4 pm to go to Garrett's parents for Christmas and then they are leaving with his family for a week at Disney World tomorrow morning. We get to babysit their English bulldog, Mack for a week.

Karen and Carlton were here and left at 4 pm, too, to go to MeeMaw's (Carlton's grandmother's) to play football or something. One of Carlton's brothers (there are three boys total) is home from the Navy, too, and he hadn't been home in two years, so they are enjoying having their whole family together and having a new daughter-in-law. Carlton is the first to marry, so they have their first young lady in the family. I think his mother enjoyed buying girl things for Karen.

When the left, it was just us. Kinda weird. Karen hadn't had a boyfriend in quite a while that we saw her with, since this was a long distance relationship, to us, she went from single to married very quickly and it's taking a bit to adjust to.

We had a tradition of going to a movie late on Christmas afternoon, and this year, they aren't here to go. Rex has a bit of a cold, but told me if he's feeling okay, he'll take me to the movies tomorrow evening.

We went light on gifts this year, with the wedding and helping Melissa and Garrett with their mobile home. Rex and I are buying each other new office chairs for our home office, so we didn't exchange gifts today, just with the kids. I got a very nice new cutting board from Karen and Carlton, and two books from Melissa and Garrett.

It was a very nice Christmas!!! Our turkey dinner turned out really good, and we had everyone together. What more can you ask?
