Well, we survived Christmas all on our own! Since I had to work Christmas Eve and the day after Christmas, there wasn't time for us to go home :( so we had Christmas all on our own! Just the two of us! It was splendid! We didn't really miss the snow (well I didn't) and we got to relax all day. Of course it wouldn't be Christmas day without some monkey bread, so I made sure to make some first thing when we woke up.
The tree on Christmas day!
Austin really wanted to be in charge of sorting all the presents in to piles, so while I worked on the monkey bread he made the piles.
We got lots of goodies including a new Christmas sweater for church...
new basketball shorts...
a surprise gift!
That's right a Dewalt sander haha He hadn't asked for one, but I thought it would be a fun gift for both of us. He gets another Dewalt and I get a sander for crafts!
So I ended up buying all my Christmas presents this year, all but one. Austin surprised me with one awesome gift! I had no idea it was coming :) He is such a trickster!
A new coach wallet!
My other favorite gift... my new boots! I bought these boots back on Thanksgiving break and have been dying to wear them for the last month!
Last but not least, new iphones! This was by far Austin's favorite gift. Going from a three year old blackberry to a new iphone was quite the change for Austin.
Ready for Christmas church!
The one good picture we got together on Christmas :)
Then today I was so exited to wear my new boots that Austin insisted we take a picture.
We really did have a great Christmas, just the two of us. Now that I can actually take a few days off from work, my family is coming down! Hooray for the holidays!
I'm so glad you finally get to wear those boots! you are right, they are so cute. Glad you had a merry christmas!
