Our Christmas

J and I started dating during the fall, so we had to figure out holidays early on. Luckily for us, it was simple. We would spend Thanksgiving with my family and Christmas with his...and, if his family happened to be in the area (his parents evangelize), then they would just join my family. Easy peasy.

This year, though, we weren't able to join his parents for Christmas. So, we had to figure out what we were going to do instead. We were, of course, more than welcome at my family's Christmas celebration; however, I wanted to do something a little different. So, on Christmas Eve, we packed up the car and dogs and headed up to a cabin in the mountains. While it wasn't quite what we expected, it was still an interesting adventure...and a unique memory.

Kaia LOVED running around out there and was absolutely exhausted.

Berkley enjoyed himself more than it looks like.

I didn't take a picture of the cabin. That was intentional. Let's just say that we were more than happy to come home Christmas morning to our house to shower the next morning....

However, here is the picture I took of our Christmas Eve fondue dinner. :) Fun times.

After we came home and unpacked, we headed to a friend's house for the rest of the day for lots of food and laughter. All in all...a good day. :)
