Just one more sleep 'til Christmas!

There is nothing like Christmas Eve.  The peaceful, calmness of the holiday season is ever present on this night.  Don't get me wrong - I'm still a kid at heart and love the excitement you feel waking up on Christmas morning.  And, no matter how old you get, you are still excited on Christmas morning!


We have spent this holiday season at home in San Antonio.  It has been odd not being with our families, but, at the same time, it's been nice to enjoy Christmas in Texas just the two of us.  We have spent the days and weeks leading up to this weekend enjoying office holiday parties, gatherings with friends, and learning about other family's traditions because they were kind enough to allow us to join them.  We are truly blessed with great friends who are now scattered all over the country.

Today was all about relaxing!  After morning workouts and lunch, we spent the day watching Christmas movies (A Christmas Story and A Muppet Christmas Carol are our favorites) and just enjoying the quiet of the day.  Tonight, we will continue our annual tradition of attending Christmas Eve Mass, then return home to wait for Santa. ;)

Merry Christmas!
