Happy Birthday Emma!

December 25, 2010

Well it was a very quiet Christmas in the McKenzie house. Mandi and Paula came to visit on Wednesday and we had a lovely lunch. Discussed wedding plans and things that still needed bought and decided on.

Pat caught a terrible cold which turned into bronchitis. It started on Tues. and by Thurs. he was home from work which NEVER happens. He finally gave in on Christmas eve and went to he ER to get some meds. I got up with a sore throat so guess who is next??? They delivered his new lazy boy yesterday so he was able to sit up and sleep which helped. By the way he liked the chair even though he did admit he thought for sure that is what he was getting. I got my laser printer and can't wait to get it set up and started. Pat got me the wireless option so that will be super nice! Those were the two big gifts we got this year for each other so along with some smaller items it was a great Christmas.

Missing Jeremy this year ...AGAIN! He is not able to come home for the holidays since it is a busy time of year for golfers. Just doesn't seem like Christmas without your children home no matter how old they are.

Postponed Christmas dinner with brother and sister til next weekend when maybe we will both be feeling better. Not gonna waste that prime rib when we are too sick to enjoy it.LOL

Hope everyone had a wonderful, Merry Christmas!

The weathermans says we are having Jan. weather in early Dec. NO KIDDING! Supposed to be a winter storm coming this weekend to part of Ohio..just waiting to see which part. Then next week Mon. and Tues. has highs of 10!!!

Jeremy lucked out again. He and mandi wanted to attend the OSU bowl game but the days were black out days for Air Tran using their free tix.He wrote to Air Tran to complain about not being able to use their comp tickets to go to N. Orleans. He is SO lucky...Air Tran scheduled them on the flight so they can go using their free tickets..yipee for them! Now to get hotel and tix to the game. Even if they don't actually go to the game, they will have a nice mini vacation and be around the hoopla of the game.

Have made chocolate covered pretzels and oreos. Also made peanut butter cake balls. Have a few other Christmas goodies to make yet. JRT cards and gift are mailed. Have personal cards to get out yet and box for J and Mandi. Hope to get that done tomorrow. Gifts are all wrapped and under the tree. (and so far.....Emma has left them alone..lol)
