So this is Christmas...

although i slept last night (this morning) at 5 am... my body just makes me wake up early and get out of bed by 12. i wanted to stay in until 2 but my brother (who went to atlantic city with our cousins) insisted that i get up and see if mom was still in the other room (it was quiet this morning and no one was clammoring outside!).

since horacio wasn't able to spend christmas eve, he went directly from long island to my place. we had brunch (at 3:30pm) - corned beef, italian sausage, omelet and bush's beans and coffee, while watching the most depressing christmas movie i have ever seen "a christmas story". horacio and i then proceeded in opening our gifts. i had horacio open his gift first, after three layers of gift wrapper he then found his mets dvd (world series game). i know he's been wanting it but the price was a bit much, when a found a good price on it (below our $75 deal) i knew it would be the perfect gift. then i began to open mine. to my surprise i got the full season one and two of grey's anatomy!!! :) we then both realize that how weird it was that we both got each other dvds. hehehe

afterwards, we did a little online shopping at american eagle (50% off clearance items + 15% + free shipping.. you do the math!). when the order was placed, we planted ourselves in front of the tv and saw "the great raid". after the movie, we played two rounds of boggle (i won!) and a round of scrabble (i won!). i just love word games! hehehe

it has been a great holiday so far... can't wait for the new year's!! :)
