So it is about that time again, but this time around it will be completely different than any other year in my past. This time I am waking up to my amazing husband to share Christmas with! I know that one day when we have kids Christmas will hold such a sweet innocence, but this year it is just plain fun and magical in it's own way.
For a moment there I felt like we had nowhere to be...we were too old to sleep over at our parents and hop on their beds at 6am and anxiously wait to open gifts on Christmas morning, but too young to have kids of our own (not entirely true since we are technically the dreaded "late twenties married non-parents") to have a Christmas morning with.
Well, the reason I am tragically far behind in this blog is because we have just had the busiest year of our lives. Long story short, my brother got married 8 days before we got married and it made for a hectic summer, not to mention moving out of state and cramming ourselves into a tiny, happy first apartment of joy! So my darling little brother and his darling blondie wife have given us a tiny little Christmas miracle. They are letting us sleep overnight on Christmas Eve and we are all going to share our first married Christmas with each other! I am truly touched that they would be willing to do that with us! We are going to wake up late, eat cinnamon rolls and egg nog (except Johnny who gets sick from the nog) and open our gifts from our spouses together! I am as giddy as I was when I was 8 for this Christmas morning because it will be one totally full of love and happiness! We all get along really really well so I am sure it will be an absolute blast!
Well, it's past 2am so I figure I should probably go lay down and try hard to sleep through my excitement!
Smile there's no crying on Christmas
