Our Chrissy...
Well after not getting to sleep till 2am!!!! Chloe woke us at 6am - I fed her and then went and woke the girls up as they were still sleeping and we wanted to get maximum time with them before having to head off for the day.
They came out sleepy to the lounge and saw there kitchen all set up and were so happy. Was hilarious as Gracie just kept saying over and over and over - "Oh my goodness, Oh my goodness" lol. Got it on vid - will have to load later. Then then saw there huge santa sacks and set on opening all the pressies in there. I helped Chloe and all had a ball.
After about 45 mins or so I said "do you think thats all santa left?" and Soph was like "no I think he bought us a trampoline too" with a very hopefull look on her face lol.
So we said "ooo I hope so maybe we shoudl go looking" Got out side and they saw it ad were SO excited and both said almost at the exact same time "can we jump on it please?" They went and had a jump and Chloe hopped on too and I took some pics etc.
Then inside for some breaky while I got ready and we were out the door at 8:45am. Headed to mels house and got there at 10:30. She was nice to me considering our first and only contact since our fight a monthish ago was on the phone a couple of afternoon prior (i think i posted it somewhere in here). Tony (her partner) kept getting heaps of food out for us and was saying I know your not staying but I want you to eat something here before you go and made me try all the meats they had cooked and the ham etc. Was so yum and I was starving as i didnt eat a thing for breaky. We did all the present giving and then left (a little later than planned) at 12:30. headed up the mountains and got there at 1:45 with about 5 mins to spare before lunch was served. Lunch as always at Jake's family's places was delish. They are very gourmat and foody people - his aunt is a chef and also works for a organic meat company. So yeah SO yum!
The day after that was awsome - there house is huge (like a mantion really) and with so many people wanting to play with the girls we got alot of time off type thing. one thing though - they had a pinata sp? outside and Gracie was having her turn then Soph came up for her turn and as she turned hit Gracie in the face. So Kathy (mil) comforted Gracie and she was fine so I didnt bother coming down off the deck to see her. I ad soon forgotton about it as Kathy went off into one section of there massive gardens with her. About 10 mins later I was looking and reaslied Kathy had been back attending the pinata for ages and I couldnt see Gracie. I started looking and Told Jake to look and we went all over the entire house and cae abck with no Gracie. We allerted family who were around and had a mini search party going on. We all kept coming back empty handed and I started to get that sick feeling after about 10 mins of her mising. Finally Jakes uncles mum (margaret) came through the gate with her and Jake yells outs "its ok" I came running over and margaret was oblivious and realised we had then been worried and said Sorry I took her to see the peacock down the road. She said she had told Kathy but Kathy didnt hear or something. Of course I made sure margaret knew it was fine as she was so worried we were upset at her but you cant help misscommunication and after all Gracie was fine and in good hands.
It took me a minute to calm down though as you can imagine.
Anyway the afternoon evening went on with food food and more food and heaps of fun and lots of pressies. We left finally at 8:30pm. As we missed my brother at my sisters house we called him and he really really wanted to see the girls to give them there pressies. I said they are asleep and I really didnt want to wake them but then thought you know it is christmas and they can always catch back up. So they slept the hr to my brother house. When we pulled up Gracie woke up and was happyto get out and see my bro. I tried to wake Sophie but she was so out of it she wouldnt so much as flinch. So we left s and c in the car and we could see them from the loungroom. We stayed nearly an hr so then headed back home again at about 10:30 pm. I fell asleep then we stopped at maccas and got a burger as by now our tummies were a bit hungry and Jake needed food to keep driving. He drove a bit longer then admitted he was buggered. So I drove for a while until I literally couldnt see the lines anymore. I stopped on the freeway and had a break then Jake perked back up and drove the rest of the way. I think we got home at 12:30am. We bought all the pressies inside and put G and C to bed and Soph then was awake and so we decided to let her pen uncle glenns present. She was impressed and we stayed up till just after 1am with her then put her to bed. Finally we got to sleep around 2am (again).
We had such a good day - so tiring though but worth it and since then we havnt really caught back up especially considering last nights fun.lol
Might make tonight and tomorrow night early nights.
I might do a list of pressies later. I better get off here and go make Soph some lunch.
Gracie put herself to bed about an hr ago and is sleeping very soundly.
