This Christmas

So, this year was the first for Maddawg and I as husband and wife. It was wonderful! I will admit that for the most part, I really didn't get into the "Christmas spirit" We didn't even get a tree until the Monday before and didn't "decorate" it until Christmas Eve and then it was mostly Maddawg. It turned out to be a great Christmas though. I'll never forget out 1st!

With all that has gone on this year, I didn't think to get presents either. Then again I wanted this year to be less focused on material presents and to really focus on just being able to be with family. I was really happy to have my brother here with us this year. He has been in Montana for the last several and will be there again next year, so it was great to have him here. So..with that, I didn't think to get my husband a gift until Christmas Eve! We hadn't really talked about it so I figured we weren't doing them. That was until he told me he had already gotten mine! Oh no!! So off I went and secured the gift he wanted. It was a great morning of just he and I opening our small amount of gifts. Then it was off to my Moms to hang out with her and my brother. Then off to the his parents house for dinner and a Christmas FHE.

It was a great first Christmas! Next year we hope to have added to our little family and receive the best gift of all!!
