Christmas @ the Rock House

Christmas is by far the most energetic morning around here. We spent this Christmas in Garland, Tx at our little apartment we like to call the "roach motel". ( for the invasions of rather large visitors that would ocur every once in a while ) We hated that place. There is nothing like being scared in your own living room, like you are always being watched and you don't know what is learking in the next room for you to find. Oh, it might have not been that bad, but you get the drift. Anyway, what is this article about? Oh yeah, Christmas with the roaches....Rocks. Whatever! We had alot of fun starting in October and it pretty much doesn't stop this until the end of January ( its not even 1999 ) ending with the 5days in San Diego ( Blog to follow ). October 8 Aniversary, Jeff got married later that month so we went to Salt Lake, November 19 Amanda's Birthday, Thanksgiving went to the Johnstons to have the bomb dinner ( Amanda's Sister whom we live by ), Christmas, moving our cans 20 min away from the roach motel = ], New Years, then January Reunion, ouch all that, then to come down with our old familiar Hawaian disease "lakamula" ( means no cash ) But Christmas is the most exciting of the months of parting. As you can tell from the pic we enjoy our sleep, but we enjoyed more the teasing of Amanda that is Chrismas morning and she should get out of bed and be happy. Maybe not the other days, but Christmas morning it happened. ("Don't awake the sleeping dragon" is this a quote by Joseph Smith or the rule around our house in the morning for Justin, you decide). Amanda got new PJ's, "good" lotions, and Kung Fu Panda, I got Season 1&2 of Psych, some old dirtbike photos framed, and a new work mug to prevent dehydration. The Johnstons came over for Christmas dinner and we had alot of fun.

Okay my skin is crawling thinking about roaches but if they were anything like the roaches on Enchanted you wouldn't have anything to worry about.
