Wow, what an absolutely wonderful Christmas we had! It started off with the Durrant family traditional dinner where we all bring our favorite food from our favorite restaurant and then put it all together and have our Christmas eve feast! It was fantastic! I of course brought Cafe Rio, but we had food from Olive Garden, The Pie Pizzeria, Schezwan Gardens (Chinese), Pizza Hut Pasta, and Red Lobster. Does it get better then that? The only thing that was better was the company. We had the whole family together, even grandma. This was the first Christmas with out grandpa John. After dinner my dad reflected back on grandpa's life and example. I love him so much and miss him so much. It isn't the same with out him, but I am so grateful to still have such a wonderful and giving grandma. After these regards, we all sang Christmas songs. We had a competition on who could sing the loudest and Gary won. He was pretty darn proud of himself. Then the present opening began. My parent's were so incredibly giving. One of the many wonderful gifts we received was a camera which I am so excited for, specifically so I can create some sweet blogs. I am just so grateful for such a wonderful family. I honestly don't know how I got so lucky. This is the way life should be!
