Tis The Season

I cannot believe this is my 3rd married Christmas! How time flies!! We left to go to Greensboro the Thursday before Christmas, however, Eric and I celebrated "our" Christmas on Wednesday. A man from our church who has been married much longer than us and also much wiser than us, recommended that we set aside time for just the two of us to celebrate. Wednesday evening we ate dinner together at home, fixed hot chocolate and exchanged gifts. On Thursday morning, we woke up and headed to Greensboro. That evening we attended the Goans Annual Christmas party.

Great friends, Anna and Rachel--Matching scarves!

Take One
 Take Two
Ahh, there we go :)



Christmas Eve, we celebrated Christmas with Eric's dad, and the rest of his side of the family. Christmas day we woke up, opened presents with his mom and siblings, went to church, and then went to Eric's Aunt and Uncle's house to celebrate with that side of the family.

Getting brunch ready!

1st Married Christmas!
Delicious Breakfast
After brunch, we headed to Lincolnton  to celebrate with my parents and sisters. Sadly, my mom got called into to work so she wasn't home when we arrived. We prepared dinner, and when she got home we all ate and opened presents. I don't have any pictures, my sister was in charge of those. We woke up the next morning, and went to Birkdale to do a little shopping. It was a wonderful Christmas and I cannot believe it is already over!


Praise God He sent his Son. Praise Jesus that He came to live amongst sinners. Praise Him that He calls us unto Himself. Merry Christmas!
