I find it pretty funny that I'm writing about my Christmas break on the day (technically because it is past midnight) I am leaving to head back to mobile! However I had a great and fun break here in Charleston.
It started off in New Orleans on the 11th when I picked my Mom up and spent the day there and toured around and then the DWBC Christmas Festival on the 13th. We traveled back to Goose Creek and the following Tuesday (one day after we got back) we went to Columbia to see my nephew and niece perform in a school program. After that it was pretty chill, just playing wii and stuff around the house. I rented Mario Kart, that is a pretty fun game!!!
We had family in town from Virginia and my sister stayed at my house. So for a few days it was pretty crazy running around meeting everybody at various locations around the Charleston area.
Well Christmas was getting closer and the Saturday before Christmas we went back up to Columbia with the whole family, including my Dad and Randall, and built a play set for the kids. This was the present from the grandparents on my sister's side to the kids. We spent hours working on that thing and we didn't get to finish it!! Ridiculous! It was finished in the following week and the kids love it!
Christmas rolled around and I played handbells at the Christmas Eve service at my church; I love to play the handbells and really do miss that part of Ridge. Christmas Day we got up and did breakfast and stuff and then opened presents. I got some pretty cool stuff but the highlight of the day was the wii i got! Oh man I was excited because I was considering buying one.
This Wii has been the highlight for the rest of my break. I went ahead and bought "Super Smash Brothers: Brawl" and tried to find "New Super Mario Brothers Wii". The second game was very hard to find. For several days I woke up and went straight to the phone book and called every walmart and best buy in town! I also visited several target stores and game stop stores and could not find this game! One day I was driving Mom around and I told her we were going to stop by the Best Buy and sure enough i found it and it was on sale, 10% off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have enjoyed playing it!
The break has ended with the Passion Conference. The experience of Passion Twenty Ten is blog post in itself and I will probably write about it when I get back to Mobile (the internet is faster as we still have dial up at the house). God truly did speak to me at this conference and changed my life and my views on things.
Well the clothes are done which means that I can head to bed. Overall it has been a great break!
