Well, Christmas has come and gone. It was my first Christmas with my husband and it was special. We spent Christmas Eve with his family and got in the car around 8 pm to head to our little one bedroom apartment. Rob was a little sick, but he started to feel better around 11. We started some traditions like opening one present on Christmas Eve, opening stockings Christmas morning, having homemade cinnamon rolls, and then opening the rest of the presents. It was a great Christmas morning and I look forward to many more. Rob did a great job and I was completely surprised by what he got me. I got him some FSU stuff which made his day! After we opened presents and ate some yummy cinnamon rolls we loaded the car and headed to church.
It was so nice to see all the families at church and it made me excited for us to one day have our own little family on Christmas. Pastor Bob gave a great salvation sermon which reminded us because we are failed humans beings Christ was born. We were able to catch up with some dear professors we had in college and unfortunately don't see much of anymore. After church we hit the road to go spend the rest of Christmas with my family. We stopped to see my Grandma and then went to my mom's house for Christmas dinner.
Wow, were we blessed when we got there. It is good visiting Rob's family, but I always love going to my mom's. This Christmas will hold a very special place in my heart, not necessarily because of the gifts, but because of the time spent with my husband for our very first Christmas. I hope your Christmas was just as special as mine was. Even though this is all great I must keep Jesus in the center, because we set this time aside to honor His humble birth.
Now I will enjoy my last few days of vacation and my last few days of the year 2011 which brought so much goodness to me and my hubby!
I leave you with a smile:)
