Obligatory Christmas Post

Our Christmas weekend was wonderful. Full of family and food.

For the very first time, we held Christmas Eve at our new home. I piled everyone downstairs into our practice space to devour chili after our candlelight service at church. Surrounded by guitar amps and pieces of scattered drums sets, we came together as family and enjoyed each other's company.

The next morning, Ryan and I awoke early and the festivities soon followed. We began at my parent's house, then on to my grandparent's house, then on to my aunt and uncle's house (where a massive feast was held), and then on to Ryan's parents for swedish meatballs and mashed potatoes.

I really don't have any need to eat for a while after this weekend. I dearly wish I would have taken a few more photos, but these will do.
