Christmas #3

Adam, Harper and I had a very non-tradition Christmas Eve/Christmas this year. Everything closes at 6:00 p.m on Christmas Eve. Well, we had hardly any groceries in the house and every place in town that sold food was closed. So, for supper on Christmas Eve Harper and I shared a frozen Weight Watchers meal and Adam had to fend for himself at work. Wait, it gets better. Our Christmas dinner was Kraft Macaroni and Cheese :) But we didn't mind - we had our fair share of food and Christmas goodies the week prior.

Adam had to work Christmas Eve, so Harper and I hung out by ourselves. We watched Christmas movies on TV and we made sure to Read 'The Night Before Christmas' before she went to bed. Adam also had to work on Christmas day, so we just bummed around in our pajamas all day - it was actually kind of nice to relax.

Harper was very excited to see that Santa had visited our house. She was shocked to see that Santa had ate the cookies and milk that she had left out. She loved her presents - I think she was actually sick of opening presents because she was pretty much just going through the motions of opening gifts - wasn't really paying attention. She was more interested in playing with the puzzles that Santa brought her!


Harper with her toys from mom/dad and Santa: 4 wooden puzzles, Mrs. Potato Head, 2 books, watercolor paint book, Home Alone, Hawkeye hooded sweatshirt, baby doll, Elmo slippers, hooded bath towel, candy, toothbrush/toothpaste, and a sippy cup

Opening up her stocking - she is just noticing that she has "Kevin" (Home Alone) in there!


As for Adam and I, we didn't exchange gifts this year. We haven't really bought each other gifts for awhile now - we usually just go on a date or something. However, we did receive some excellent gifts from our families. I think we got almost everything off our lists - thank you again to everyone for a great Christmas! We love you all.

Now that Christmas is behind us, we wish everyone a happy and healthy new year!
