Sorry, I've run out of Title name ideas.

Well, December went by WAY faster then I thought it would. I thought I would be able to enjoy Christmas but it felt kind of rushed and hectic this year. CJ was working a lot of overtime so maybe that's why I feel like we missed out on the whole "feeling of the season". We still had a great Christmas though. Lots of great food and lots of even better family.
Drake got spoiled (again) this year. Not by us, but by his Aunts, Uncles and Grandparents. I realized after Christmas Eve that I should return the few items that we got him and get our $50 back. I thought about telling Santa to do the same. Instead we watched Drake open his Dinosaur books and Disney movies on Christmas morning. He had a lot of fun, and he got a lot of great things.

I bought CJ some new camo and a Coyote call and CJ bought me a camera. He won "Husband of the Year" award! He had been saving up, on his own, for about 8 months now in order to surprise me with it. I love him! CJ is not the romantic or thoughtful guy so this was very awesome of him to think of something like this on his own. Way to go babe! It's so dang cool, and I have been doing a lot of reading to figure out all the manual settings. YAY! Next item to purchase: Editing software.

CJ had me open my gift first because he knew I'd want to start taking pictures right away, so all our Christmas pictures are on the new camera and I'm still playing with it so I'll upload the pictures as soon as I get around to it.

I hope you all had a great Christmas and a fabulous New Year! I'm excited for 2011 and I have some very important goals to look forward to.
