What a fabulous Christmas to be had @ the Williamson home. Last night (Christmas Eve) we got to have dinner with good friends. It was great to be in the company of people we love. We came home, put Mc in her Christmas Princess jammies and Mark and I busily readied the presents for morning. It was so much fun to lay Mc's presents out. We watched a movie, talked and went to bed around 11:00.We woke up this morning @ 7:30 to open presents and Santa definitely found us. We all came away with presents galore from family and friends. We are so loved and THANK YOU! The highlight gifts were Mark's Kevlar jeans and riding jacket, Mc's pushy toy and of course, and my pink Trail 90. We got ready and headed out to the Iund's for a tasty German Pancake breakfast and just sat around enjoying each other's company.
We headed home for naps all around. For our afternoon delight, we headed to the church parking lot and rode the Trail 90. I will say there was NO crashing and the "seat time" made me a little more secure. I also came to realize, the left brake (the one I had tried to used to stop myself the first time), it doesn't work...at all. So there you have it, not user error but a 40 year old bikes faulty brakes. After I stopped white knuckling the handlebars it was quite fun and I am excited to spend more time on it. It was quite wonderful too that we were outside, no coats, no snow, enjoying the winter of Arizona. How lucky I am to have a man who slaved away for 2 months creating this thing of beauty for me.Here is a video of the Trail 90 in action. I was really going like 70 mph but it looks like 10.
Our Christmas dinner was quiet this year but delectable nonetheless. We had crab legs, steak, spinach salad and crescent rolls. For those of you that don't eat seafood....crab legs are truly, truly, food of the Gods.
We are going to bed with full bellies, a living room FULL of presents and Clark Griswold as our neighbor(actual picture above- he won 2nd place in all of Phoenix for his lights). We are so blessed. We have EVERYTHING we could ever ask for. Much love and Christmas wishes to all. Here is to an amazing 2010.
