Christmas and New Year's This Year

Christmas and New Year's this year was awesome!  I had an amazing time with my family and friends.  Plus this year we got 2 weeks off from school.  That was definitely nice.  For the first few days of break I just relaxed.  I had to work a couple days but that was okay.  I like to work and I can always use the money.  Then on Christmas Eve we went to my Aunt's house for my Mom's Christmas.  I have a lot of cousins on that side of the family so it's always fun.  We went to church on Christmas Eve, too.  I think sometimes we get a little carried away with all the gift giving and getting that we forget what Christmas is really for - Jesus.  Last Saturday we went to my Grandma and Grandpa's for my Dad's Christmas.  I had a blast!

For New Year's this year my family was planning on going to my cousin's but that didn't work out.  Instead I went to my Boyfriend's house and we had some people over.  We had a lot of fun.  We bought some sparkling grape juice and some non-alcoholic champagne.  We all liked it a lot.  We even toasted at midnight.  So, I've been having an awesome break.  The only thing I'm not looking forward to is going back to school.  :(  2 more days...
