4 brothers 4 sister in laws 4 nieces 6 nephews... lots of christmas fun!

I am just sitting her watching my second oldest brother and a billion kids play mario brothers on the Wii.... this is what i call pure magic and the best christmas ever! First i must brag about my mom for a min.... so for christmas my mom had a plan to try and get my 4 brothers and i wii's for christmas but with 10 days until christmas she didn't even have 1 bought yet... she knew best buy was going to be getting some in on sunday but sticking to her beliefs she decided to not break the sabbath and just keep waiting.... well sure enough a few days later my mom had the impression to call target and the boy who my mom had now become friends with said to be there and they would have some.... well because there is a rule about 1 wii per person so my mom calls 4 of her friends at 6 AM tells them it doesn't matter what they look like just bring the checkbook cash or credit card to target right away! And sure enough they showed up and know we have 5 Wii's in our house and it has been pure madness!!! and the best memories ever.... the day after christmas my brothers and i were soooo sore none of us could raise our arms!

But let me share the best part of my christmas... having my entire family in idaho. it has been the first time ever and it has been awesome. nothing but laughs and eating. I have decided there is nothing better then family time and i love that i have grown up with four of the most amazing brothers ever! and know i have the 4 greatest sister in laws to follow and the most beautiful nieces and nephews. Family really is the greatest blessing and i have an even deeper appreciation for Heavenly Father and his insight and importance of the family! it has been amazing. Christmas really is about miracles and i have witnessed so many this season. from friends that are willing to drive over an hour to help out a friend who is in need or a answered pray that a present for a husband will show up out of nowhere on christmas day to many many more! I love this season and this time and i am grateful for all of the people in my life!!!
