My sister Kelli and her family came for a couple of days during Christmas break. It was so relaxing to just hang out and take it easy. At one pathetic moment, I looked around and there were 6 of us sitting on the couch, all with our tablets or phones! Not to mention that the little kids were all downstairs playing Play Station! Seriously?...that's pathetic. BUT, isn't that what Christmas break is...to just waste time doing whatever...guilt free?
We called my brothers family to come join our party. At about 11:30 at night (it wasn't New Years Eve yet, so technically we should have all been asleep), mom and dad called. We couldn't figure out who would be calling at that time of night, when we would normally all be asleep. When we answered it, it was mom and dad - what a great surprise! They had no idea we were all together. They had just gotten their internet hooked up and wanted to test it out. So we also tested out the Skype. It was so great to have them at our party with us, and they are half way around the world. Their other mission, this wasn't possible - so this is a real treat. Only problem is that when we're sleeping, their awake. Oh well, they can call anytime of day or night - it is still a treat!
