I Got A GPS, Tracy Got Sirius

Another great Christmas so far with Tracy and her family. We were able to spend a fun night at the Burns' eating pizza, playing cribbage and opening gifts. Then, we made a bolt for her mom's side at the Theisens' eating cheese ball and exchanging more gifts. The yearly tradition of lottery tickets from Tracy's aunt scored me $2 and her $1. No big winners this year.

This morning, Tracy, Tim, Laura and I exchanged gifts. Tracy scored Sirius Satellite Radio's Sportster 5 and a home kit from her mom, plus installation. Pretty sweet and definitely needed in Murrieta. I got Tracy the Gravity from T-Mobile, which she really likes. Of course, she guessed she was getting a phone two nights ago. No clue how she guessed it, but today she found out she was right.

I got some fun board games, shirts and even a book about "What's Your Poo Telling You." But, the gift I'm really excited about is the Nextar GPS she got me. I've never had a problem getting lost, but it has seemed to happen a little too much in SoCal lately. I guessed my gift too, but Tracy's poker face is WAY better than mine!

Oh, and I did get this sweet blue jean Levi shirt from her dad's girlfriend in our name gift exchange last night. Canadian tuxedo anyone? I think I might keep it so I fit in really well in SoCal. If Leno can pull it off, maybe I can too?

Well, we are off to my parent's house in Lakeville, nearly two hours from Sartell. It will be good seeing my family. It might be the last time we are all together for awhile, so I'll savor it. I'm excited for our Christmas dinner too ... the non-traditional STEAKS! Nice!

Merry Christmas to all.

C & T
