We celebrated Christmas yesterday with my family at my parents' house.
It was a lot of fun and I can't imagine how it's going to be next year!
This year there were 10 adults! Just in my immediate family and that's
crazy to think of. This year there was only one nephew, Dylan. Next
year there's going to be two more little ones around! Aron and I
prepared the turkey and it looked really good... it just smelled
DISGUSTING! We had a rotten turkey :( So we obviously didn't eat it.
But we had lots of other yummy food. Veggies and dip, Veggie pizza,
meatballs, turkey (lunch meat) sandwhiches, cheesy potatos, mozzerella
sticks, fried broccoli and cheese and fried mushrooms.. it was good! So
I guess it wasn't so bad that we didn't have a turkey, but it really
bummed Aron. He was soo excited to prepare it! I was just reminded
again how blessed I am and how God is amazing! I have the greatest
family!
I do have to say that I didn't realize how hard it was going to be this
Christmas though. I was extremely jealous when I found out my second
sister, Jess, was pregnant for fear that she and Apryl would grow
closer together and baby bond and leave me in the cold, like when we
were little. But then Apryl and I talked and I realized that I'm not
going to lose her sistership or friendship and if anything I will just
get to be a double Aunt who can give the babies back and when it comes
time to Aron and I having kids, I'll be spoiled cause I don't have to
share it. So I got over the jealousy quickly, until yesterday! I felt
so left out of the babyness. Sharing about how they feel, when their
doc appts are, how they want to decorate... ugh. I'm still excited for
them, just a little bit bummed again for me. Oh well, I know that
if/when it's God's will, we'll have a baby... :/ Just had to add that
little rant on!
Merry Christmas!
