Christmas 2008

It was a fun day. Unfortunately I had to work from 9:00 - 5:30pm. Oh well, that's what happens when you're the bottom man on the totem pole. Oh well.

We only bought the children one present each, of course they ended up with more because of gifts that others gave them.

I've gotten to the point where I don't want to do Christmas anymore. I think that the family should travel instead. Save the money that would have gone towards Christmas, and create family memories instead. All I have is JUNK that the girls are already bored with.

I'm completely serious. I will phase out Christmas within 5 years. What we'll do instead is having Christmas stockings and then a family breakfast.

Here's to 2009! (Which I also work, *sigh*)

Kenny and I are thinking of boycotting Christmas too, at least the materialism of it. Maybe we'll do a Christmas cruise at some point in the future?
