I was so excited about Christmas this year because us kids decided to make Dad the focus! Jesse, my brother, and I all pulled our resources to get dad a gift he's always wanted. We made him wait until the very last present to open it. We ordered him a book about the strange things to see in Montana and he opened that first. He had a very special envelope too. Inside, there was a letter explaining that this year, our gift to him was a trip to MONTANA!! He has talked about visiting Montana since we were kids and now he's going to get to go :) Also, as an added bonus, us kids worked on it together and DIDN'T kill each other! He's been telling anyone and everyone who would listen. He got choked up and mom of course cried and it made for a perfect Christmas day!
Jesse got a Wii from my parents and I got him Wii accessories and a few other small things. Jesse got me some Christmas dishes I had been eyeballing from Target. I can't wait for Christmas next year when we can use them at our new home! And I got a Nook from my parents. We also purchased a larger tv for a gift to ourselves.
New Year's Eve is tomorrow and we are so looking forward to what 2013 will have in store for us! New home together, marriage, graduation, new job for Jesse... it should prove to be an exciting year for the new Hanrahans!
