Merry Christmas 2008!

We have had 2 fun-filled days!

CHRISTMAS EVE

I worked the first part of the day...but then our boss let us go home at lunch time! After I left Milliken, I went and purchased a few last minute gifts. After that, I went and got a pedicure! Normally, I don't get pedicures done in the winter...but my toes looked scary...and I didn't want to scare people in Hawaii.

After my pedicure, I headed home to wrap the last of the gifts and then we went to the candlelight service at my church. After the service, we headed to my grandmother's house in Union.

We ate supper at Gurneys. Then, we headed over to my other grandmother's to give her her gifts. After that, we headed to 2 cemeteries to put poinsettia's on my grandfather's graves. We went to my dad's dad grave first. However, it was extremely dark...and there was just one light at the entrance to the cemetary...so we couldn't see anything. There were a few graves with Christmas trees and a music boxes...kinda eery. This has to be up there on the list of weird/scary things I've done on Christmas Eve. Needless to say, we never found my grandfather's grave. We knew of the general location, but in the dark with all the markers looking the same...it was hard to find. We were able to find my other grandfather's grave and place a poinsettia on his...then it was back to Gurney's to open presents.

We got home around 12:30AM!!
