Although it was quick and early it was filled with all the elements of a regular Christmas day...We had the home made Christmas goodies thanks to Grandma Gamble. Some pretty thoughtful gifts changed hands. We had Burl Ives spinning on the 'ol record player, vinyl style. Christmas movies were on and of course, the Christmas 'cheer' was a plenty.
We played some video games cleaned up and hit the hay. Some of us still had to work the next day after all.
So now what does a Mom of three young-ish kids do over the Christmas weekend with out her kids? Well, I guess we could watch movies by a fire or go for long walks or drive around looking at the many amazing Christmas displays around the city.....naaahhh.
Instead Terry and I are going to Las Vegas!! Yup, that's right. A couple of years ago we started the tradition of going to Banff every other Thanks Giving when the kids were with their Dad. Well, now we are starting another one...we both ache to travel and explore different places so why not go at Christmas time? I could sit around wondering what the kids are doing and wishing I could be enjoying a yummy Christmas breakfast with them...or...we could distract ourselves with new sights and sounds filling our souls with excitement and adventure.
We're going to VEGAS....
Merry Christmas
