First Christmas

My Colorado Christmas. It was a good day really it was. I was with family and not alone which is good. But I didnt have my traditional christmas. Which is lasagna dinner with my family gift exchange and loads of laughs and of course wine. Lots of wine.
Last year Ted and I went to the movies on Christmas morning with my aunt and cousin that was a start of a new tradition. This year I got to go to the movies with a cousin and a very good friend who I love! So that was good that I got to carry on that new tradition. After that I went back to Teds grandmas house had dinner and we opened one gift on Christmas Eve (I've never understood that tradition) we didnt really do that when we were younger because its Jazines birthday so gift opening was all for her that day really. But then I talked to Ted for a few hours. I love when we are able to do that. =) So I was asleep by 1am woke up at about 5:30am, everyone else was up by 6:30am. We opened presents at 7am. The rest of the day was spent sitting in a chair reading a book. I pretty much tried to keep to myself for most of the day just because I honestly wasnt sure if at some point I would think of something and break down. Im pretty emotional due to the holiday without my "normals" and the fact that I have a phone I dont want to bother giving people the number to because its not my number. So I wasnt able to talk to my best friend today which Im sure Ill hear about whenever this phone stuff gets figured out. I didnt get to talk to anyone I usually have contact with today so that sucks. Finally I texted my sister and got to talk to her a bit that made me happy. Of course texting Ted during the day was a big help. Also I had a really good conversation with my mom. Shes coming to see me next month. Im really excited about that. I am so ready to have a close relationship with her. I know it should have happened a long time ago but now is a chance to start that...really. So she will be here a weekend next month. Woo hoo.
So here I am back home laying in bed with my babies. I missed them over the night. (yes I am a dork like that) But they are my comforts right now.
I hope everyone had a fabulous Christmas. And if you texted me and got no response Im sorry first thing in the morning Ill be down at verizon trying to get this number thing figured out.
Also I want to say...I didnt hate today like it might seem. It was a great day Im very thankful for everyone I got to spend the day with (today and yesterday) I was just out of my comfort zone a little bit and I of course am a lot bummed about that. But it was a good day.
