*Bug Juice- I don't know how they get away with calling it juice. It doesn't have juice in it- just sugar, water, coloring, artificial flavors, oh and they toss in some vitamins and minerals so they can write that on the packaging. Ella once drank one so fast she threw up, you would think that would quell her desire for the stuff.

I love Rockband!!
One of the Christmastime highlights for me was playing rock band at my friends' house. No, a twelve year old boy has not taken over my blog, it is still me. Holly invited some people over Christmas evening and it wasn't long before Jeff busted out Rockband. A few Maragartitas later and I was convinced that I was, indeed, the most awesome lead singer ever. The game even tells you when your "AWESOME". I have no singing talent whatsoever, but I was still somewhat successful at this, which only fueled my fire. I couldn't stop talking about it for days, and I still think about it periodically and smile (hence this late post about it). Holly or Jeff if your reading this I think it is time to reunite "Fallen Puppy", (our band name) I think I am having withdrawals.
Here are some pictures. See how much fun it is. Look at the smiles on the faces of the adults. To keep the kids involved (we couldn't possible give it up long enough for them to play) we dressed them up as rock stars and let them sing back-up.

Christmas
Christmas was wonderful. It was so much fun to witness the excitement of Ella's Christmas morning. When she saw that Santa ate his cookies and noticed all of the presents under our previously empty tree, she turned around and looked at me and said, "Santa was at my house, he ate his cookies". It was like being a kid again.
We started our Christmas festivities on Christmas Eve at the Candlelit Service at church. I can tell she is growing up because she is getting much better at sitting still for longer periods of time. She enjoyed all of the singing, and asked a little too loudly during one of the solo's "Who's that making that noise?" We then went to Grandmas house for snacks and eggnog. It has always been a tradition in our house that you are allowed to open one present on Christmas Eve after church. Ella opened her gift from Grandma Doris, a pink velour track suit.
On Christmas morning everyone came to our house to open presents, then we went to Grandma and Papa's house to open MORE presents, we must have opened presents for 4 hours. Everyone got everything they wanted and we had plenty of new stuff to try out. I am still trying to find the time to put some music on my new Ipod. We had a great Christmas dinner and as Ella once told me "we found some big naps". It was a great day and we were very happy that Grandma and Grandpa Dickerson were able to come all the way from Pennsylvania to spend time with us.
