A Very Merry Christmas

As always, the holidays just flew by this year.  I'd like to say that we packed as much holiday cheer into the last few weeks as possible, and maybe we did.  But the mom in me feels like we didn't do enough.




We watched all the Christmas movies...in between the kids' YouTube obsessions.  We went to the Tree Lighting Ceremony and took our annual "Picture with 5th Street Santa" photo.  We went out of our way each time we drove somewhere at night, just so we could see the "good" Christmas lights.  We drank hot chocolate and made gingerbread houses and made lists and saw Santa Claus.

And, before we knew it the kids were tearing into their presents on Christmas morning.

Christmas this year was ALL about technology for us.  Scott and I gave each other smart watches, Gerry got an iPod Touch (yes, they still make those), and Bailey got herself an iPhone {more on this in another post}.

I blinked a few times and the entire holiday was over.  Just like that.

Next up...Gerry's birthday.
