and I didn't like it. at all.....
Just didn't feel the same. Sure we got to spend extra time together without having to rush to my aunt's house. But that is fun to do for Christmas, get together around 11am -- eat brunch -- open gifts -- rush to my aunt's house. Also everything was opened, so it wasn't Christmas, since my sister and her boyfriend who live in the boonies of IL decided they wanted to leave early to go to Ikea. and we did this early for them, so that was kinda crummy. Also -- this year my Aunt decided to push back Christmas at her house by an hour, so we probably wouldn't of been so rushed like past years.. and honestly, no one is ever on time for that.
Now I really don't have much to look forward to other than going to my aunt's house? and Scott's uncle's house which are both parts of Christmas I don't like. aka, sitting in a tiny house with tons of people. Fun right?
Well at least I get to sleep in.
I hope we don't do it again, maybe it's because we don't have kids, and don't live two hours away that makes it so hard to change it. But it's not going to be really Christmas this year since it's done and now the awful parts are left.
Maybe I should just deal with the fact that my family does end up getting pushed to the side with my sister boyfriends family, and then my brothers in-laws. (especially my brother in-laws family) But it hard since they always end up doing tons more with those families and not mine, and my mom let's it happen. Scott and I try really hard to make sure both sides get equal attention, which is hard but we manage to do it. It's just the fact that some don't want to see that way I guess.
Okay, my sappy blog is done. If you read this thanks?
