Today started our week with the Foreman Family. Once a year my brother comes down with his wife and two girls from Memphis, TN and spends a week with us. They usual come the week after Christmas, so we celebrate New Year's together each year. We always wait and exchange gifts with them once they get here. We have a "mock" Christmas day and do all the things you would do on a real Christmas day. This year we started out with a breakfast at our house. When then made the long walk to Gram's and opened stockings followed by presents. This year my mom gave us a week full of activities and it truly was a TREAT!After opening presents we had few hours of down time before we all loaded up and headed to Sea World for the Luau. None of us had ever been to the Sea World Luau and that was Dad's present for us this year, we had such a great time. TJ stared at the stage the entire evening. The Luau is a dinner show, so you are supposed to eat during the show. After dessert had been served and the show was over the house lights came up. We were gathering our things to leave and TJ looks at me and says, "I didn't get to eat". We had tried to get him to eat during the show but he was too busy "watching". Later on in the week, as he was reflecting on the Luau he told us that he liked the part where the man stirred the fire. I just love the cute way he describes things. The Foreman family Christmas day was wonderful and a great start to our week of family fun.
