Merry wishes from Jordan and her family

Jordan and the rest of our family are enjoying the Christmas holiday. For those of you who read this blog and celebrate Christmas, I hope your celebration is wonderful. We’re having all kinds of fun. The kids had a chance to go for a swim today – twice! The first time was venturing into their grandparents’ unheated pool. That didn’t last very long. Later, they got to enjoy a heated pool… It still wasn’t THAT warm out. So the kids didn’t last very long.

But it was enough to tire the kids out. Jordan actually FELL asleep while cuddling with me on the couch. The only reason I had gotten her to cuddle with me was because she felt a little cold and I was so tired from wrapping, I wanted to watch a little bit of Planet Earth – which is an incredible series about nature if you haven’t watched it yet.

Anyway, the kids have been pretty good and focused on trying to stay on Santa’s nice list. They had fallen into naughty earlier in the week and that has helped the two kids treat each other a little nicer. I wish I had remembered the power of the naughty list earlier in the season. Putting them on the naughty list on my iPhone was one of the smartest things I’ve done in a while.

Along with pool and sun, the family celebrated Christmas Eve. That usually includes a yummy meal, celebrating the holiday and openings gifts. We had a great time unwrapping my day’s work and checking out the incredible gifts we all gave each other. Jordan and the rest of our family are so dang lucky and I hope we all appreciate what a wonderful life we’re living and celebrating.

In the morning, we’re going to surprise the kids with the ultimate trip. I can’t wait and I can’t wait to post video!!

Merry Christmas to everyone who reads this blog and celebrates Christmas!
