To our friends and family...

It seems we are kind of taking a laid-back approach to Christmas this year. For the first time since we were married we are not traveling anywhere, but instead look forward to staying home, spending lots of time snuggled in our Christmas jammies, watching movies, and stuffing our tummies with cream-based foods. We'll miss our families, but we're excited to start some of our own traditions.

I'm sad to say that in our determination to not let the spirit of Christmas get overtaken by the to-do lists of Christmas, a few things on our list did not quite get checked off this year, and this is as close as we got to sending out a Christmas card.

Consider yourselves Seasonally Greeted, and please don't take us off your Christmas card list!

And maybe if I get my act together, you can expect a Valentine coming to a mailbox near you in February.

Merry Christmas and Love from us!
