Break has been so much fun. I'm a bit sad to go back tomorrow. It will be nice to see my Wartburg friends again though.
I got back Wednesday night, luckily without any storm related complications. My family went to see Harry Potter that night. It was a lot of fun! I sat by my youngest brother. He made me laugh during the movie. There was one part when a snake jumps toward the audience suddenly that causes you to jump. Right after this scene he said to me, "I don't like these glasses." I laughed so hard! This statement was in reference to when he was little and was watching a 3D movie in an IMAX theater. We were watching the previews before our movie about underwater creatures was going to start. During the preview a ladder "fell" on the audience. Matt whipped his glasses off so fast and then proceeded to say, "I don't like these glasses," and then never put them back on again. We tell that story all the time because we all found it so funny. It was hilarious that he thought of that during the movie on Wednesday. It was completely out of the blue and yet perfectly appropriate!
Thursday we celebrated Thanksgiving with my family. We ate turkey and all the sides and such for lunch then hung around the rest of the day. We played games and that sort of thing. All the girls went to Michael's to hit their sale. They started their Black Friday sale the night before! I didn't get much. Just some yarn for crocheting and some Christmas ornaments to put up on our little tree in our room.
For me, Friday was homework day. I met my grandma and aunts for lunch (they had all gone out shopping earlier that morning). I ended up going to Gordman's with my mom that afternoon. We found some gifts that she could give me for Christmas and/or my Birthday. I found a Christmas present for my roommate as well. We ended up watching Toy Story 3 that night. I had never seen it before. Its really cute! I love that series. After that I went and saw Harry Potter again, this time with some friends from high school. I was really happy to see them again. I wish I could see them more often than I do!
Today was Christmas. Everyone came over for soup at lunchtime, then we opened presents. I got a couple new shirts, some socks, a jacket, staff paper, and a Christmas ornament. I was super excited! I gave my uncles and my grandpa Wartburg mugs. It was really funny seeing their faces when they opened them! My grandpa went to Wartburg, so he appreciated the gift, but both my uncles went to Luther! It was really funny to see their faces when they opened them. My one uncle was speechless! He then sat there deep in thought trying to decide what he is going to do to retaliate. I have a feeling there will be some Luther stuff coming in the mail in the next few weeks!
Now its back to school tomorrow. The next few weeks should be a busy, but fun time!
