This year for Christmas, we were able to spend Christmas Eve Day with my family and Christmas Day with Kevin's family. The patients at the Women's Center also got to spend six hours of Christmas Day with me. Oh, the joys of being a nurse.
We drove up to Kamas on the 23rd, then had breakfast and lunch with family, as well as present opening. We then headed back home on the evening of the 24th, so I could prepare for work the next morning.
After I got off work on Christmas day, we had lunch at Kevin's parents' house. It included yummy sandwiches on the best croissants. While it isn't my family's usual feast, it is very yummy. The only downfall was that I drank a tiny amount of chocolate milk, and either it or something made me sick. I didn't really feel 100% until the following Tuesday. I guess that is why you shouldn't have dairy products when you are lactose intolerant.
Later that night when we returned home, Kevin and I opened our presents to each other.
In all Christmas was good. I even enjoyed my time at work. Prior to Christmas, everyone asked if I was excited to spend my first Christmas with Kevin. To me my first Christmas with him was our first Christmas together two years ago. I guess because we dated so long we kind of lost the newness that most newlyweds experience, but I have enjoyed missing the whole adjustment period.
