Christmas morning arrived and it didn’t take too much nagging for Jayson to wake up so we could open pressies! Scored some good gifts too! Jayson brought me the Star Wars II xbox and PSP version of the game - should keep me busy on the tube for awhile! He was also naughty and brought me an iPod Nano - which I thought was rather funny as I was slagging them off only a week before when we went to the shops - feel bad now! But in hind sight it is a good idea - nice and small and easy to use on the tube and he was really sweet and put pics of us and my family on there - made me a little upset (I’m okay with the being away from home thing as long as I don’t think about it!) but it was really sweet of him and now I have a white iPod to go with my white PSP - though it was a bummer as he also brought himself a black one - but got ripped off by the guy on ebay and it hasn’t arrived yet :/
Lots of pressies from the family too - got three shirts with long sleeve tops over them for work which look really good (wearing one at the moment) and are very warm too! And another top and jumper in light green from Belinda which also look really good (the jumper looks good over two of the shirts as well!) and some milo and body wash that can only come from Australia too! Jayson got a nice pair of lambs wool slippers from the folks as well!
I brought Jayson an xbox hard drive - which sounds rather boring - but is something that is needed so we can play the older games on the xbox - plus a few other small bits and bobs!
We headed over to his mums place for 12.30 and said hi and picked her up - Jayson was a big meanie to her dog (she has two - one that is really really old called pug, and another that I call ‘licky’ cause that’s all she does - lick everything! and pug has a spot right in front of the file - but jayson was standing there and pug was trying to push him out of the way (by headbutting him) and then we smelt something burning and pug is standing there with his tail in the fire! silly old dog!
So we then headed over to the family Christmas at Jayne and Darrens house and it was a full house indeed! I had met everyone except Aunt Carol and so it was quite relaxed - dug into food pretty much straight away - no turkey or meat as they are vegetarian but it was very yummy with full roast veggies and lasagne and lots of other things to fill up the plate with - ate so much infact that I couldn’t fit in dessert!
We then proceeded to play trivia - with me as the quizz master which was alot of fun - few problems with the pronunciation of a few words but otherwise okay, then a few rounds of twister and this computerised dancing game (PS2 hooked up to the tv - with a mat that has arrows on it - and when the music plays you have to copy the steps on the tv - sound easy - but really isn’t!)
And then it was almost 6pm and time to go home! - Well actually we headed over to Mel and Craig’s to watch the Christmas episode of Dr Who and have a few drinks and then back home (home = hotel) and sleep time as we were both totally stuffed from the day.
Overall a really nice day - missed my family but really nice for Jayson and I to have our second Christmas together!
