Christmas Around the World in 48 Hours...

Our Christmas was a blast, though extremely busy! We began our festivities on the 23rd when our niece Kyleigh came over and helped me make homemade candy for gifts.





Evan of course was at the firestation! On Christmas Eve, our day began early with a visit to Evan's grandmother's for Christmas with the Nelson's. We opened gifts there and had some yummy lunch, including Honeybaked Turkey! Then it was on to my Pop's house for Christmas Eve night. We had some pizza and opened our gift (money) from my Pop. Then we headed to my Mom's church for an 11pm Christmas Eve service. Needless to say, we had a very busy day and we very ready for bed.









Christmas morning, Evan covered at work from 7-9 so that a coworker could watch his little boy open his gifts from Santa. When he came home, we opened our gifts from one another! I got: a right hand ring, Brighton necklace and bracelet, a houndstooth coat, wine glasses, my favorite perfume Falling In Love, a Snuggie, some Pink sweatpants, and my favorite gift: my new Macbook! Yay! I also got a card from our puppies to their Mom. Evan did VERY well for Christmas. He even had my stocking packed full with all of my favorites! Evan got: 2 Xbox games and another controller, a hat, a hunting handwarmer, a hunting photo album, two shirts, some dress pants, a firepit, a shopvac, and lots of other things! Carsyn and Brenton both got stockings and a christmas steak while Evan and I enjoyed waffles! We then had to clean up and go to Evan's grandfather's for Christmas lunch. We had a great time seeing everyone. That evening we headed to my parents house to see what Santa got us... more great gifts! One of my favorites was our new mailbox. It's handpainted and has a firestation on it! Hope everyone's Christmas was just as great!


















MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM THE NELSONS!
