Christmas Break

I know it is kind of late but I had a wonderful Christmas break! David was off too so we got to spend a bunch of time together. Callie loved having us home all day too! We celebrated our first Christmas together, which was special. On Tuesday night we ate at Applebees and then came home and opened presents. David got me a new camera, which is why he wanting to do our Christmas early. It was also Callie's first Christmas (I know she is only a dog, but she is our baby). Then on Christmas eve we went to my aunts house to celebrate with my dads side of the family, there were 22 people at my aunts house. Then Christmas morning we got up and went to my parents. It didn't feel like Christmas until I got to my parents, I am not going to lie it was very weird not waking up at their house. We opened presents, ate a big breakfast (a tradition), and played Jenga. It was fun sharing Christmas with David. That afternoon we went over to David's parents. We ate dinner and opened presents with them. David got a remote controlled helicopter, the advanced version, and tried to fly it, which was entertaining. It was a wonderful first Christmas together!

Other things we did over break:
  • went to an engagement party for our good friends and stayed in a cabin
  • watched UK basketball and the Minnesota Vikings
  • I had lunch with a friend I hadn't seen in 3 years
  • Ate dinner at PfChangs with my wonderful teammates
  • Celebrated an engagement of another friend and then had game night
  • Meet a friend I hadn't seen since the wedding for coffee
  • Read, read, read
  • Went to see Sherlock Holmes, Up in the Air, and Avitar in 3D (all very good movies)
  • Took Callie to the dog park
  • Baked cookies :) I have decided I like to bake better than cooking dinner
  • Played dominoes with my family and played dominoes with David's family (it is a fun game)
  • Celebrated New Years with my old roommates
  • Slept in- every morning Callie and I would get up together, I would drink coffee and read while she snuggled with me, I loved it
  • Worked on my scrapbook- every year since David and I have been together I have made a scrapbook of our year. I am kind of late on this one, I usually give them to him at Christmas. This year has been very busy!! I got a Cricut and have been using that :)
  • Had a Christmas movie marathon in our pajamas!!!!!

I can't think of any more things. It was my favorite break! I love being married!!!

Callie in the snow

We took Callie to the dog park Thursday and Saturday so she could play in the snow. She loved it!!! She ran around, rolled in the snow, and played with other dogs. She was worn once she got home.
