Merry Christmas

Our first Christmas together was so much fun! We spent Christmas Eve with my family and everyone was able to be there! Stephen was so nice and shoveled the walkway and I think most of the driveway. Then we built tiny little snow men. Stephen was able to meet my whole family for the first time. It was fun having him get to know everyone. We had a big turkey thanksgiving style dinner and then had a fire in the family room where we visited and enjoyed having all of the family together. Christmas morning Stephen came over to my apartment and we opened our presents together. We were each in charge of the others stocking and filling it with fun items spending no more than 20$. We both ended up spending a little more but it was so much fun opening our stockings and other presents together! Then we drove over to my parents house and opened presents with my family and had our traditional Christmas morning breakfast! It was such a special day. In the afternoon we went to Stephen's grandmas house and spent some time with all of his family. We opened our presents with them and then headed to the movies with my family. It was another successful perfect Christmas day! The day after Christmas we went skiing/snowboarding with my dad and brothers. My dad and I had enough fun pretty early on so we only stayed for a half day and drove home with Jake and Som. Jesse and Stephen stayed and skied the rest of the day and had a great time.

Snow for Christmas always makes for a happy Christmas!
