A Christmas to Remember

This Christmas was a Christmas to remember! On Sunday night we were staying at Patrick's parents house and Patrick woke up at 4:30. I just rolled back over and went back to sleep and woke up at 5:00 and heard him in the bathroom. OH NO HE HAD THE VIRUS!! I then got up and ran to the bathroom because YES I had the virus as well. We were both miserable. We were up from 5-8 just fighting each other for the bathrooms! I then called my mom and she called my sister to come to our rescue. They called their family doctor who then called in some medicine for us and Andy came to give us some medicine. After that Patrick felt better, but I still did not feel great. My mom came and picked us up around 4:00 and we just sat on their couches all Christmas Eve night. I was so upset because I love going to my dad's communion service, but I was not about to move!
Christmas morning Patrick woke up and he felt so much better but I was not 100% great, but I was so excited it was Christmas! It was a happy but sad day because my dad was sick with the virus on Christmas.
Patrick and I did gifts that morning at my parents house! I was so happy because he bought me Dance Dance Revolution. Yes I know I am a dork, but I love video games that are active, like Guitar Hero and Dance Dance! I was just sad because I did not have enough energy to play!
I gave Patrick and nice watch and Guitar Hero!
After presents with us we started the day with visiting family! It was so nice to see all of our family and especially to see Caroline and Eli enjoy their toys!
Although our family was sick on Christmas we had a great Christmas because we realized how blessed we are and how lucky we are to have a healthy (most of the time) family!

I hope everyone had a very MERRY CHRISTMAS!
