Drake's first Christmas

This christmas was a lot of fun. We spent christmas eve and christmas day with my family this year. Josh, Lauren, Drake and I went to the movie "The Blind Side" on christmas eve day, then went to my grandparents for the usual: Good dinner, lots of laughs, acted out the nativity, and got a visit from Santa. We then went to my parents house where we opened our christmas pj's, forgot to put out cookies for santa, heard the bells, and went to bed.

Christmas morning we woke up to lots of fun things. Even though Drake couldn't have cared less about it all, it was still fun to have him here and to see what he got from Santa. The best thing about the whole day was talking to James. We didn't get to talk to him for very long, but it was just good to hear his voice. He is doing great and he has almost been gone a year. We are all so proud of him and love him very much. After we talked to James we had crepes and relaxed. Later that night we had curry at my mom's house (weird tradition I know, but we love it). It was a fabulous day!
