Christmas and Weirdness

So, I dont have any pics of Christmas, we do have video of it tho. Christmas was great this year. It was absolutley perfect. My fav part??? Watching my boys open all their presents and getting so excited for them all. Unfortunatley, Santa had a mishap with the delivery of Conner's present and Conner did not get a Santa present(YET) He doesnt really know that tho, so I gues it's ok. for the time being. Santa did bring Coltin a motorized Razor scooter, which has turned Coltin black and blue in the face and people are prob thinking they should call CPS on me or something. ok, well it's not THAT bad, but he has fallen a few times and got a black eye and a fat lip cuz of it. Santa also brought BOTH BOYS an air hockey table, which they love. I guess you can say that that is what Santa brought for Conner. We took back Conner's gift to Wal-Mart(where Santa had purchased it on BLACK FRIDAY) and were going to buy a 1 seater power wheel thingamajig. And this specific WalMart was the ONLY one within 50 miles of my zipcode to have this specific item. Well, they only had the display, and they said we could purchase it, BUT we had to buy the battery seperatly and they wanted like $60 just for the battery. Um, excuse me, I dont think so. SO, right now we are waiting on something similar to go on sale. The boys got a TON of cool video games that you just plug into the tv and the games are built in to the controller. Bo got me an IPOD (Hot pink) and some headphones and a gift card to Itunes. :)" I totally heart it so much. I also got a popcorn maker, just like I had growing up. It makes super delicious yummy in my tummy popcorn. We also got some way coolio and fun gifts from the parents. Thanks Mom and Dad and Cheryl and Dave. You guys are the bomb.
Ok, so weirdness story- So earlier this year ( I cant remember if I wrote about it or not) I took Conner in to Mesa Public Schools main center, to have him evaluated for a speech therapy preschool. While we were there and in the waiting room, I got to talking to this couple who was there with their little boy who was also being evaluated. They were a really nice couple( and the wife knew Bo (I think) from High school or something- I cant really remember) anyway. The husband looked familiar, but I didnt say anything. So this morning I took Conner in to have new tubes put in his ears(both of his other ones fell out last week and the week before) So while I was in the pre-op room with him, the dr came in, with his nurses and they took a little boy back in to the o.r. and another nurse, was taking the parents back in to the waiting/recovery room and lo and behold- it's the SAME couple I met, while at the evaluation screening. I immediatley recognized the husband as i had before. we kinda did the whole, "hey, dont I know you, we've met before" thing. And then him and his wife walked out and in to the waiting/recovery room. So while I was sitting there, waiting for Conner's turn, I thought about it and am THINKING that the husband is my 2nd cousin. Seriously. how weird is that? I called my mom and asked her what the names are of the children in that family and she said, Tyler, as one of the names and I told her that was who I was thinking of. Seriously. So weird. I think its weird that we met that day at the evaluation and then this morning, same dr, same day, same time, same surgery. of ALL the surgery centers in AZ, of ALL the ENT's in AZ, just weirdness.
Im trying to find him on FB and whatnot( i know, lame, but whatev) but I couldnt find him. However I did find one of his sisters and left her a msg.
So, ya. thats all.
