Mom has to work the day before, the day of and the day after Christmas so this year promises to be an interesting one. Tomorrow Dad and I are busing out to church for the Christmas Eve service at 4:30. Mom's picking us up from there after service then we all go back to her place for a dinner of chicken wings, seasoned rice and potatoes. The morning of the actual day, since Mom has to work, the rest of us only get to dive into our stockings. Mom usually works until 3 or 3:30, so I get to start dinner around 2:00 so it's ready when she gets home. After dinner we all open presents (thank you's all around) and then Dad and I go home Christmas night. Dad because he has to work and me because some mail-order packages the day after Christmas and I'd rather not leave them until the weekend.
I'll probably then stay home through Sat in order to get to church and Mom can either pick me up from there or on Sun. Depending on what Matthew gets for Christmas I may be skipping church the week after New Year's. All Mom said when I told her I might get Matthew a new game for his Gameboy was, "Let me just say that after Christmas his Gameboy will be obsolete." Meaning she got him a new game system, like a Wii or an X-Box. Hmm....
