Christmas began for us with the town party the week before Christmas. Santa arrived on a fire truck and had presents for all the boys and girls. Josie sat on his lap and did not cry or fuss. Let's hope that continues in years to come. I am planning on this being her yearly Santa experience since it is free, close to home, and there is no line.Our first Christmas was pretty uneventful. We went to Sheree and Howard Askew's house on Christmas Eve for dinner. Sheree is the person who watches Josie a few times a month when I have meetings. Josie openned her first presents there and we had the following Christmas picture taken. We went to church and then it was home to bed.
Jay was up early on Christmas Day and got a fire going and breakfast started while Josie and I slept in. We celebrated with mimosas and traditional Hauschild Christmas morning breakfast, while at least traditional for all the kids as it seems mom and dad did not follow that tradition this year. Sorry David and Eunha. Anyway, we openned gifts later in the morning - enjoying the idea that we had at least this Christmas to take it easy since Josie had no idea what was going on. In fact, she fell asleep as we started openning them. Thank you to everyone for the gifts. The rest of the day we sat around and relaxed. We had an untraditional meal of enchiladas since neither one of us wanted to go to the energy of a big meal just for the two of us.
As you can see not much happened but we enjoyed being together and having Josie with us this year. I know things will get crazier as the years go on so we were happy to have a relaxing day.
