When I was little my favorite part was all the family time. I just remember so much laughter and joy filling every inch of any house we entered. Simply beautiful!
This year there was no snow and hardly any chill but the laughter was plenty as expected.
This year I also got to share my Family Christmas with my wonderful boyfriend, Joel. This was his first Watson Family Christmas and he had a blast! (Which anyone would... we're super fun people!) Words cannot express what it meant to have him in the room laughing and sharing that day with me and my family. It was very special. I am so very blessed to have such a loving and supportive family!
Everyone really enjoyed themselves and it was so fantastic to catch up with my sisters. We all live so far away it's tough to be in the same house at the same time. So this was wonderful.
Christmas Eve my parents and I took my mom's mother to see a movie (also on Christmas Day). She was thrilled! The Christmas Eve movie was in 3D so it really made her day! I hadn't seen her with that big of a smile in a while.
I love making people smile!
Christmas Day was mostly for Ma'ma (my momma's mother) when she arrived at our house. She was loaded up on more presents then she knew what to do with. I saw her turn into a little kid again. It was funny. Then once again we loaded up the car and headed to a movie!
Sadly I had to head back to my apartment the next day for work.
But the week I got to spend with my family was so incredibly special! I wouldn't trade it for anything in this world. My family may be loud and a bit overwhelming but they are mine. I love each and everyone of them more than I could even begin to express. No matter how mad they make me or how deep a wound may go they are still my family. They will always be there and they will always love me. Even the new members of this ever growing family! And I can't wait to watch it grow bigger and bigger with weddings and births and so much more love and laughter! For that's the foundation of a Watson... Love & Laughter!
