Drumsticks, turkey, wii cheerleading and neck pillows...

Christmas was wonderful. I got to see some extended family on my dads side that is always a pleasure to be around. The cousins are getting so big and so old and I'm so amazed at how Amy and Sam handle the hectic life as a mommy to 3 and 2 respectively. Christmas with my moms family was hilarious as usual. I have VIDEO proof of my brother and Uncle playing Wii cheerleading...we kept telling them that their man cards were null and void lol. My neck pillow that my mom got um I mean Santa got me is amazing. I slept wonderfully and am so thankful that I got one finally. Video proof was recorded on Ryan's and my new video camera my parents got us!! Yay!! So Christmas was wonderful, my first as a married woman, and I'm looking forward to seeing Ryan's side of the family on Saturday as we celebrate a late Christmas. So I'm at work today. It's the day after Christmas and I'm at work and when the sound of my typing is the loudest noise in the office...I think it's time to say hey coworkers "Let's get the hell out of here." Haha...I have some work to get done but I guarantee I won't have much to do the whole day. Anywho, I'm just thankful to have a job. My dad finally got a new job after being laid off after 14 years almost 9 months ago. He starts in mid-January and he will be working right down the street! So that'll be nice to have lunch with my dad on occasion. Ryan's seasonal contract with Target is almost up (Jan. 21), and even though they'll probably hire him on full-time he really is trying to find another job or to apply for management within Target. Work searching is no fun and especially in a time like now. I started thinking the other day after seeing all the kids at Christmas Eve at Aunt Cindy's about one day seeing my kids giggle and unwrap gifts and how amazing that feeling will be. Although I anxiously await that day, I am thoroughly enjoying married life with Ryan sans kiddos running around. I was emailing my friend Jamie the other day and we were discussing how crazy this baby boom is. She knows a bagillion people at church that are prego and I know several people as well that are. I agree totally with her regarding the fact that I want to get pregnant when Ryan and I are ready and when it's not a fad to get pregnant lol. My night last night concluded with a rock out session with Ryan on my Christmas gift, Rockband 2. I kicked ace on the drums and he rocked out on the guitar. It really is the most addicting game I've ever played. My arms definitely got a workout though which was awesome. Ok well I hope everyone had an amazing holiday and that everyone has a safe and wonderful New Year. Laterz.
