Merry Christmas!!

Merry Christmas everyone!!! I have been HORRIBLE about posting pictures probably because we keep changing which computer has the pictures stored on it. Our Christmas was a good one. Sunday evening Michael and I decided to take a trip to an Opera House in Denver to watch The Nutcracker. I went online to get the tickets but they weren't able to purchase on the computer anymore. We bought our parking pass and hoped that there would be tickets still. We arrived at the ticket booth to find out the show was sold out :( I was disappointed but knew that could be the case. I asked her if there were any other shows to see and she suggested walking across the way to the other theater. On our way over there we say a lady in a fancy black coat with red trim guiding people into the Opera House to see The Nutcracker. As we were walking near her the lady asked if we were going to the show. I told her we didn't know what we were going to see as we didn't have tickets. She told me she had two extra tickets she would like to to give us!! I told her she made my day. She walked us inside and handed the tickets over so they could check us in. We went up to the third level... a box seat. The show was beautiful from where we sat and I'm so happy we were able to go. I hadn't seen The Nutcracker since 1997 with my mother. The kids did great for the baby sitter and they were all sleeping when we arrived home. Christmas Eve we hung out at home then went to the candle light service at 5. We gave the kids their matching pj's then they went to bed. Christmas started for us at about 7, then Macy woke up at 8:30. We had a nice leisurely time opening gifts, ate a nice crock-pot meal and relaxed the rest of the day. Macy loved the stuffed toys and baby cradle we gave her, and the boys enjoyed their legos. It was a great day!
