Well, I guess compared to the illness and early morning fire of Christmas 2010, this one wasn't nearly as crazy!! We got to sleep in until the late hour of 3:45 am....woohoo!! The girls were so excited they just couldn't stand it, so we had all the presents opened by 4:30. It ended up being a blessing we got up so early, because around 6 am, we got a call from E's mom because Uncle Mac was really sick in the hospital, and Eric left to go be with his mom. I stayed behind with the girls, and explained to them about Uncle Mac. Melanie got all excited, got on my lap and said, "I am so glad that Uncle Mac gets to go see Jesus on his birthday!" Mom Mom and Papa came over that morning to help set up the girls' new tvs, and brought them dvd players to go with them.
We headed over to Grandma and Grandpa's, and even though everyone was sad about Uncle Mac, Melanie's sweet words made everyone feel a little better and we celebrated Christmas just like we always do. We went over to Mom Mom and Papa's for dinner, and it was so nice and relaxing!!
