Christmas this year was a little different. Brad and I decided to not get Christmas presents for each other. Instead we are focusing paying off some debt and decorating our new home. The only gift we bought for each other was a living room rug. It changed the whole look of our home, made it warmer and more inviting! I really love how it looks. I also bought the baby a gift and gave it to Brad....a tiny pair of Nike's that came with a basketball. If you know Brad, then you know how much he looooves Nike shoes.
Christmas morning we went over to my folks house and celebrated Herman style, homemade Cinnamon rolls while we looked at what was in our stockings. Our stockings this year were filled with a ton of everyday items that we use such as deodorant, shampoo, downy ball, tooth paste. It was awesome to get stuff that I buy every month for our everyday needs so it saved us a ton of money. Some of my favorite gifts that we got from my folks this year was maternity clothes. Not only are they comfy, but they are really cute too. We also received a food saver. I really wanted one so that we can start buying in bulk and freezing the rest of what we buy to save time and money. We also got a really neat fireplace set that is pewter and matches the decor of our home. The set that came with the house was really ugly...we hope to use to old set outside when we are able to landscape our back yard and build a fire pit back there to entertain. Brad got lots of new clothes which is great because he needed some new stuff. We spent the rest of the day playing with our gifts, relaxing in PJ's, and eating snacks. Dinner was amazing. I love my mama's cooking!
Last year Christmas was so different being married and spending it with both families....its hard to believe that next year, it will be even more different. The anticipation is killing me.
Pics to come, like I said I can't find the cable to the camera, I will post them as soon as I find it.
