A Christmas wrap-up

I didn't really write much about Christmas this year, or well- post many ridiculous pictures of our tree.
Probably because we didn't have one.
One thing I realized that helps with the "after-Christmas blues" is not having any decorations up to put down. FELT SO GOOD.
Ya.
Anyways, our Christmas was good- although I have to admit, I really missed spending it with family.

Joe woke me up early to open presents (oh how growing up changes things...)
We ate good food.
Watched Sariah open up one gift, get excited about the jacket she got, and decided to go off and play dress up instead of opening any more gifts.

We were invited over for Christmas dinner, and I am proud to say- Joe was the hit of the party.
:)

    I treat post Christmas like a bad breakup. There's crying and eating and trash all over the place because I just can't accept that it's OVER. XD

    Anywhoodles. Awww, Joe is popular! Is that a toy dog he's trying to figure out for the kids? Or is it real?

      Yes. Post-Christmas is, depressing. I like your explanation of it. =]
      And no/yes, it is a toy dog. =] One of those dogs that is supposed to move and be able to not run into things and follow your voice. =] It just adds to the scene though, huh?
