Christmas Post.

Christmas this year was... very strange to say the absolute least. My dad was gone for the Slope and my siblings are 13 and 15, so according to my mom, the "Christmas Magic" wasn't into this year.

It was still a good Christmas when I go over it in my mind. I went to a Christmas Eve candle lighting thing with my friend Annette. Which was very nice and I very much enjoyed it. When the lights went off and all the candles were lit, I almost felt like I was in a Christmas movie because it was so perfect. Also, I got to feel Baby Loudermilk, but he wouldn't move because he was sleeping. It definitely is a special memory.

After the candle lighting ceremony, my mom, siblings, and I met with Annette at Settlers Bay Lodge for dinner which was, also, very nice. And the food was delicious!! I ate so much my stomach was pushing my lungs. It was awesome.

We went home and at 12 midnight, we opened up our presents. We have never done that usually on Christmas Eve we would open one present before bed and then the rest on Christmas Day... So it was a cool new little thing we did. In the morning we undid our Santa Socks and ate. Then I left to go home and make Christmas Day dinner.

My family came over at about 3 for some turkey and mashed potatoes, fresh boiled spinach and cheesy rolls and stuffing. I had also made pumpkin pie. It was a delicious dinner. After dinner they stayed and played apples to apples for a couple of hours and played with the dogs. It was fun. After everything was cleaned and put in the fridge, my mom and siblings left. I watched my new Dark Knight Rises that I got from my brother and had a very good night.
