December was a fun month for us. This is the first year that C&C fully enjoyed opening presents. Last year we had the unfortunate Shitmas. Gift opening was really quite pathetic with the sick and tired family ours.

Our family of four had a nice celebration at home Christmas Eve and Day. Then we headed up to celebrate the holiday with Chad's family. More gifts to enjoy and open!

Would you believe that Chad and I enjoyed TWO nights away from the shorties? It was heavenly. Chad's parents watched C&C one night, while his sister, Joy, and her family watched them the second night. While we didn't do anything exciting, sleeping in was a pure pleasure in itself! So grateful to have family that enjoys spending time with the shorties, allowing us a much needed break!
