Christmas in a hotel room at a bowl game is always interesting. Since we opted to celebrate early, our Christmas didn't look much like Christmas. I was planning on laying in bed all day and watching Chrsitmas movies, but the girls had other plans.
The girls got dressed, and I pulled on this cozy hoodie. We went to the hospitality suite for breakfast.
Then stopped in the kids suite for a game of jenga.
The girls asked to see a movie, but the only thing playing was scary rated R or Puss in Boots. I was interested in neither option, but they had a film about the Alamo that was 45 minutes long so it was perfect. We grabbed our hoodie blankets, popcorn, and settled in for some more Texas history.
You know I'm not a Texan because I 100% believed that we had won the battle at the Alamo. Spoiler alert- everyone was killed and Mexico won. Texas later won at the Battle of San Jacinto, and that's how Texas became it's own country/state- whatever.
After our movie, it was time for more games in the kids room.
Some fun on the elevator.
Then we bundled up to head outside for some sunshine and fresh air.
Of course we had to stop at the Alamo.
After our walk it was back to the kids suite.
Megan convinced me to workout, so I got in an elliptical workout while she climbed 30 flights on the stair climber.
DJ eventually came back from pracitce and had picked up Nana from the airport.
We got ready for Christmas dinner with the team and families, and saw Santa as soon as we stepped off the elevator!
We had dinner, listened to payer Christmas karaoke, and had a family picture with Santa.
Then a big video picture with Santa.
We ended the night in the hospitality suite. I stayed up entirely too late playing Cards Against Humanity and drinking way too much wine, which led to a late start on Monday.
Our Christmas day was definitely unconventional, but we made some fun Christmas memories.
