Christmas Eve At The Bum Bums

Today I'm trying to update my blog but at the same time I'm feeling lazy about posting that past couple weeks. Yesterday Derek and I were hit with the stomach flu. We spent the whole day in bed/running to the bathroom. It was miserable! We're feeling a bit better today but not quite ourselves. Evie is the only one that hasn't got the crud yet...knock on wood. Will is sick today but doesn't seem to be as sick as Derek and I have been. Evie took care of us yesterday, she is getting to be such a big girl. She seems to act older then her 4 years a lot of the time.

We really had a nice Christmas this year. It was strange to have NO snow though. Derek kept saying that it didn't feel like Christmas. I do like snow at Christmas but I would be happy to have NO snow the rest of the winter. I'm loving the sunshine! I actually sat on the deck and ate lunch with the kids today...weird. I think the vitamin D is good for a bunch of sickos though.

I keep getting off the subject. We had our annual family Christmas eve party in Morgan at the Brumbaughs. For some reason all the pictures I took were kind of weird, people making strange faces and my not so good camera skills. I apologize in advance for embarrasing my family members. There was lots of good food, games, a gift exchange, and Debra's awesome slide show she put together. So much fun!






The Buche de Noel that I made for the party. If you don't know what that is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B%C3%BBche_de_No%C3%ABl
