A Belated Merry Christmas


Here it is, almost a week after Christmas and I have yet to write anything about it. You would think that as hectic as it was, I would have a lot to say, but oddly, I don't. Don't get me wrong, it was great. Leaving aside getting a tree and wrapping presents, it started at 3:44 AM the day before Christmas with a text from Rachael saying that she was at the Louisville airport, and ended more or less two days after Christmas with me texting her at 11:30 PM to make sure she was safely back in Louisville.

In between, we decorated the tree, made cookies, watched a movie, opened presents Christmas morning, had Christmas dinner, baked, watched another movie, went to Amherst, baked some more, and did a whole bunch of other stuff- stuff that I may remember given time.

We squeezed a lot in, though we didn't have time to decorate the pine cones that Sam and I had collected a few weeks back (the picture above is from a couple of years ago). But that's OK, it gives us the excuse to do it some other time. We did plenty of of other things, and most importantly, we were all healthy, and we were all together.

Here are a few photos that I think convey the feelings of the four day span...
