Home for Christmas

Wow, it's been quite a while since I last posted but here's the beginning of a few day catch up. I was home for a week and a half for Christmas and my birthday and it was great. I got home the 19th and surprised my mom by going into her classroom where I met all her students. The next few days I worked on cleaning my room. I had left it relatively clean but while I was gone, my parents redid the carpet and as a result, had all my stuff dumped in my closet and on the floor. Christmas eve came before I knew it and after reading the Night Before Christmas, we all went to be to wait for Santa! Well he came so I guess we had all been good! I got some good stuff but the best part was seeing all of my family.

The 26th, I went out to do some shopping and got a new phone for my birthday! That night, we went bowling and out to dinner. I didn't do too well bowling but it was a great time. I'm going to have to start going more often to get some practice in.


The next night, Stephanie, Brian, Kevin and I went out to Cleary's and then the Bee Hive in Boston for our sibling night. It happened to be my birthday at midnight so they sang to me in the bar. It's great now that we're all over 21 so we can actually all go out together. When we got back to Stephanie's, we had some delicious cupcakes that she had made earlier.

Friday night, we went to my Uncle's for another family party and it was great to see everyone who hadn't been at our house for Christmas. Overall, it was a great time at home and it was definitely a little hard to leave.
