Well, understandably, with a 3 week old baby in the house, this was the craziest holiday ever. On top of that, I got an XBox360, and traded in the 95 Maxima for a 2004 one, which absolutely rocks. I'll blog about both later in more detail.
Andrew and Sara came down Christmas morning, as well as my dad. My mom was feeling ill and didn't want to get Jenna sick, so she didn't come. We really missed her, and that made Christmas alot weirder for all of us. Luckily, she's coming down this week to spend some time with us.
As per usual, we had stockings jam-packed with fun goodies like pocket multi-tools and books and candy and frisbees and such. Mom puts together quite the stocking. I think they were mostly to keep my brother and I occupied Christmas morning so they could get an extra bit of sleep. She would bring them to our rooms in the wee hours of the morning while we were pretending so sleep. We'd tear into them immediately, sometimes in the dark, so we were just guessing what we were playing with.
Anyway, I fried up a turkey, which turned out great. I only marinated one side of the turkey since Andrew likes his "plain". The other side was garlic herb flavored, and I did the best "distribution" of the injected marinade I've ever done. Usually, I've got alot of big pockets. This time, it was spread more evenly.
We had a great time. Jenna got alot of Baby Einstein DVDs and some good books. I read "Goodnight, Gorilla" to her last night, and she appeared to enjoy it (Which basically means she did not cry).
