CHRISTMAS 07

We had our usual Christmas eve early on Sunday instead of Monday night so my brother Gary, sister n law Marti, and baby Andrew could be there for it. My brother also had to work on Christmas eve so it worked out well. I cooked a ham and took it with all the usual trimmings to my grandmothers.

Before my brother came up, he had my mom looking for this necklace that he had let my grandmother borrow several years ago. It has a gold chain and had a gold cross on it. My mom like searched and searched because she knew she had it but just couldn't find it. It was important because this necklace was like the first thing my brother bought when he was like 16 when he got his first job and it was worth and meant a lot to him. My mom finally found it right before he got here and then I guess when my mom put it on him his neck had got bigger? ROFL so it was tight... but he wore it anyway. Then on the real Christmas eve we all had met up before they left to go back to Texas at my grandmothers. My brother took off his necklace and then asked, "Does this look too manly?" and I was like , "no? *weird look*" He's like here and totally put the necklace on me. I was totally in shock cause I was like, "nooooo way, mom will kill me if you give me this after she looked forever for it." LOL but he insisted. I was like "awwww *tear*"
So that was one of the best Christmas gifts I got. I'm just safe keeping it till Andrew is old enough to pass it on to.
