'Tis the Season For Getting Stuff...

Welp, another Christmas has come and gone. This was a pretty good Christmas, I must say. It was the first Christmas for Rose and I together. We both got each other neat stuff. I got her the new Harry Potter book, The Tales of Beedle the Bard, The X-Files movie blu-ray, Explorers
(she actually picked that one out and gave it to me to give to her for Christmas), these cute little red and white striped gloves, a heart locket and some stocking stuffers.
She bought me a trip to Disneyland along with a new suitcase for the trip, some cool Dark Knight t-shirts, some cool Harry Potter t-shirts, a Harry Potter winter hat, and a cool electronic Star Wars trivia book. She also got me some cool stocking stuffers.
Her brother got me a cool Elvis record and her sister sent me a Star Wars lunch box.

Rose came up with this cool clue on where we were going in February. I knew we were going to California, but I wasn't sure what we'd be doing there. So she made this little picture puzzle for me to put together. She put the pieces in each of my presents and I had to put the pieces together. Then she wrote our destination in some glow-in-the-dark glue that I had to go into the John to read. It was pretty cool. I'm really looking forward to the trip! I'm trying to save up what money I can so I can blow it on Star Tours.

Come February, I won't be the only 30 year old who has never been to Disneyland.

Rose's brother stayed with us for a couple days so he could have a nice Christmas morning. Then, we went to their grandparents' house for a nice dinner and more presents.
We still have to go to my mom's because we have presents over there, too.

All in all, a very nice Christmas. I look forward to the next one.

You used the word "cool" 7 times in your blog :P.

I'm really glad you had a good Christmas and that you like your presents. I'm really happy with mine too. This is one of the best Christmas's I've had since my mom died. You really made it a special day for me.
