Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!































I'm taking a break from our dating story to tell you about our Christmas. This was our third Christmas as a married couple. It was great! We spent all our money on everyone else so we don't always get each other the best gifts. We really just filled each others stockings up with candy! That's what Christmas is all about though...giving! I got a few really nice things - like a Coach purse and a pink Guess pea coat. Calvin got some pajama pants, a nice sweater (that's too big, haha) and an NCAA Madden 2009 video game...whatever that means.

Anyway, on Christmas morning we went to my mom and dad's house for a HUGE Christmas breakfast. This was fabulous because we both went in our bathrobes and pajamas!! We had biscuits, eggs, bacon, and lots of butter and jelly to go along. No makeup for me and a scruffy face for Calvin. It was so nice and cozy!

Around 11:00 we left my parents' house and went to his parents' house. That was quite nice too. We had a huge lunch on top of our already stuffed tummys!


Later on that evening, we went back to my mom and dad's house for dessert and coffee...a tradition we do every year. It really was just a simple day, but we enjoyed every minute of it!


Of course, I cannot neglect to tell you the real reason for Christmas. Christ came to the earth and was born to save the souls of man! He came to die...to save me and you! Praise God that there is a redeemer, Jesus God's own son!
