Back Home!!!

The kiddies came home last Friday (Dec. 26 th) about 1230!!! We (Meme and I ) were waiting not so patiently, standing at the window watching for the kiddies arrival. We met them outside in the yard!!! They were HOME!!! WOO-HOO!!! Merry Christmas to us!! In case you forgot, the fab four spent Christmas this year with their father. I worked on Christmas Eve (actually was sent home at 2pm because of the low pt census) and worked all day Christmas Day. Sadly, we did not have ANY Christmas babies. There were several born on Christmas Eve, but none on Christmas Day (before 7 pm that is - may have been some before midnight but I wouldn't know about that). But, back to the 26 th!!! My parents and I gave the kiddies a joint present this year. Their BIG (quite literally) present was waiting for them in the backyard....

Yeah!! They were very excited! We spent the next hour taking turns jumping, even Meme and I jumped! I promise to post videos of that soon. HILARIOUS!!! But mainly we played out there trying to buy time until Aunt Perry arrived. She made a new purchase that morning and we waited for her to arrive to start our "official" Christmas celebration. A good time was had by all...Everyone had a great time exchanging gifts and playing and we ate a great meal. I promise to post pictures and video soon...Worked yesterday (Sun.) and I work tomorrow and again on New Years Eve then I have 2 days off in a row!! I'm scheduled 4 days this week...we've got 4 nurses out for various reasons so we are all pulling extra shifts...ugh! When you see the tramp- don't be alarmed....the net wasn't on correctly but Poppy and Jack fixed it today (Mon.) so it is officially put together correctly as of this morning.
