Christmas in the Bag!

We've got Christmas set! The presents bought, the packages wrapped!

I believe that I am almost more excited as a Dad waiting for the 25th to watch my kids eyes light up! This year is going to be great!

We did about 2 hours of Swimming at Watiki on Sunday. After swimming we headed over to Outback... Samantha has never been there and it's probably been 6-7 years since I last had a bloomin' onion of there quality! We also had some lobster tail and steak.

On a side bar... Samantha has always been funny with her steaks. She's always been a believer that a steak is only done if it's dark brown from one side to the other. Lately she has decided that pink in the middle isn't so bad. So lately if she get a steak she order's it Medium and has a big smile on her face! It's almost as though she's discovered a new food!

After the Outback we had a lot of time left for the night so we decided to get an early start on the Christmas shopping. First stop was Toys-R-Us! This store has really been one of those necessary evils for us. At least 90% of the the stuff at Toy's-R-Us are things we would never want our kids to have. The other 10% is pretty cool. We've found some very cool items for Aundrea over the last several Christmas and Birthdays!

Aundrea and Tristan were whipped after a day of driving, swimming and shopping!

Monday we finished our shopping and headed home after a meal at a local Mexican restaurant. When we got home, we sent the kids to bed and then started wrapping presents (while watching Ben Hur).

Now with the kids (and Samantha...thank you Vegas!) done, I can sit back and wait for Christmas to get here!
