Yesterday being that it was Christmas, was about as normal as normal can be. Which means the typical family feuding & sisterly bickering rank side-by-side with over-eating, snow, and presents in the Galloway household. Throw in divorced family, step siblings, and a tight time table & bingobango that's Christmas.
I arrived late on Christmas Eve to a wintry white snow covered Marland Heights, but sadly woke up to a drizzling rain in stead of the promised snow.... Apparently that snow is stuck in the mid-west somewhere, possibly waiting for the weather's version of the air plane company who never seem to be able to get passengers from one destination to another flawlessly.
Regardless of the debacle that has turned into our Christmas traditions, it was wonderful to see my mom, dad, sister, probably future brother-in-law if he can deal with Kelly for that enough, and my mom's side of the family.... complete with our adopted mini-family that is the Watsons.
Anyone up for a road trip to Oregon this summer? I've got a childhood best friend that is dying for me to visit, promise Chelsea I'll be there soon!
Merry Christmas everyone, I hope everyone had a great holiday & if not I hope that your stories equal or can top mine. Because in the end, if we can't laugh at ourselves what is there to enjoy?
