christmas in ohio

ohio christmas

after returning from texas, i had to go right back to work for 2 days, which included new years eve...blah! because of this we ended up not being able to celebrate christmas with our ohio family until new years day. so, for our first day of 2010, matt and i headed to urbana. i'm liking the bullet-form for these long entries, so here's our schedule for the day:
0600- i got off work, came home, showered and went to bed
1400- we wake up, workout, and attempt to get christmas gifts together...we had some issues making the hot chocolate (don't ever, ever try to use unsweetened cocoa for hot chocolate. it was an accident, but i couldn't fix it and we had to start all over!)
1800- arrive in urbana at steve & jacquie's. watch OSU win the rose bowl. go bucks! exchange christmas gifts and enjoy good food.
2000- arrive at david & pat's, enjoy more tasty food and exchange gifts with david, pat, heather & miah. fall asleep for a while watching cincinnati lose their bowl game.
0100?- arrive home, put away presents, shower, fall asleep! (i had to work again on january 2nd).

all in all, it was a wonderful way to spend new years day! we are so truly blessed to have such wonderful families and to have the means to spend the holidays with both matt's parents and mine! thank you to everyone for a wonderful christmas and a blessed new year!

happy new year, 2010!!!
