Well...today is Christmas, and what an interesting vacation this has been!

Our family decided to travel up to Grand Junction, CO to spend the Christmas holiday at my sister's new house. A few days before we arrived, my sister had slipped and fallen on the ice and broken her leg. She was in surgery on Christmas Eve. She didn't have a tree set up at her house, so we made a quick trip to Wal-Mart and bought a tree and decorations and set it up before she got home from the hospital. She loved her surprise!

Before we came up to CO, my grandmother was also in the hospital in NM. She seemed like she was going to be okay when we left, and we kept in close contact with the family in NM. We spent a nice Christmas morning unwrapping gifts...watching Serena unwrap her gifts...and relaxing. My dad had to work the day after Christmas, so he was going to leave for Farmington early Friday morning. Things with grams weren't getting any better, and a winter storm was on it's way through the area, so he decided to leave at about noon on Christmas. He and Heather left and head home. My mom and I stuck around to help Shaylah since she's a little immobile...

It was a pretty relaxing day...except for the fact that I was--or am--sick! I always tend to get sick when I have plenty of time off of work.

At least I am in a place with Internet access! YAY! I finally have the opportunity to update my blog! I'm only taking this opportunity to do this though because I just finished the third book in the Twilight series! :)
