Dan and I celebrated Christmas morning this morning, as we won't be home until (probably) after the New Year. Though he had to drag me out of bed, it was lovely to sit by the "fire" (heater) and open presents together. I got scrubs as a reminder that I will be a nurse soon! I love how well we know each other and that our gifts reflect that knowledge.
Now, we're packing for a trip with an unknown length and praying that God brings us back home safely and healthily together. Our poor Christmas tree has to be de-decorated and taken out, as it would be a fire hazard alone in the apartment. :(
The car will be full of presents and laundry and such, ready for the long drive north. Before we get there, we have to pick his sister up at the airport and go to a memorial service for his grandma. Then, we're off! Rolling into Santa Rosa around 2 or 3am.
We will be posting quite a bit in the near future, so stay tuned.
Merry (Howen)Christmas-morning!
Merry early Christmas to you and Dan:) I'm happy you at least got to enjoy your own Christmas tree and little Christmas celebration.
