Hi Everyone!
I can't wait for Christmas! This holiday will probably be the best so far this year, except for my wonderful birthday party in June. (Even though it really wasn't a holiday.) I didn't know what I wanted for Christmas (I didn't really even want anything) so I said wanted to visit my grandparents in Florida. Next thing I knew, my dad bought plane tickets for January! It's kind of a bitter-sweet feeling because it will be my first time on a plane - sweet! - but I'll have to go through those stupid body scanners - bitter. >=( But I'll get to see my dad's parents, my cousin, and a couple other people I haven't seen since I was maybe eight.
Also, my brother Lucas in the marines (not stationed in the middle east, thank God) is going to be able to come back home from December 22 - January 2! =) Double bonus for him, because it'll be Christmas & New Year's here instead of at some base doing who-knows-what, who-knows-where, who-knows-when.
But, one of the disappointments of this Christmas is that my oldest brother and his family aren't going to be anywhere near here. (They moved to Nevada last July because his wife's dad owned an apartment near Lake Tahoe - awesome! - and it would be a whole lot cheaper for them to live there than to pay rent every month for an apartment or buy a house.) They are probably going to spend their first christmas in their apartment together as a family.
All in all, this Christmas is going to be spectacular!
Have a good time, everyone!
