A double dose of Christmas

After our Asheville weekend, things have been nonstop.  So nonstop that I have taken an embarrassing amount of zero pictures.  Well, almost.

We’ve had a couple of basketball games, Christmas in Newton with the Hoots and Christmas in Winston with the Pierces.  I came down with a virus during the Hoots Christmas and David caught it in Winston during the Pierce Christmas.

But even in the midst of a little bit of sickness, here are a few things I’ve learned this Christmas season…

{1}
The longer you’re married, the more it feels like our Christmas traditions instead of his family or my family.

{2}
Christmas is more fun with little ones around… thank you, nephews!

{3}
Giving presents really is more fun than getting them.

{4}
Although giving may be fun, the wrapping part sucks.  I’m all about the bag life.

{5}
All pictures should be taken with a real camera, not an iPhone.  I mean, look at the comparison of the pictures I took {the first five} vs. the ones Amy took {the last two}.  I’m a big Apple supporter but that’s just embarassing.

{6}
Basketball season doesn’t get a Christmas “break.”

{7}
2015 is right around the corner.  I always enjoy the new year because it feels like a fresh start.

    • Right? I was kind of mad about it at first but… what can you do? So I just chose to roll with it. Mostly because I didn’t have a choice…
