I love the Christmas season and this year was great. It started out a little rough for me because I love decorating the house for the holidays. We’re living with my parents to save money and I sort of broke down when we pulled out the holiday decorations. I had a place for everything last year in our big Lawrenceville rowhouse and I loved it. I miss that place so much but I know that we’ve got a good plan in place to set ourselves up for the future. Plus, the best part is that we are totally surrounded by family. That’s what really matters.
We certainly had a lot of family time this year. On Christmas day both sets of grandparents and aunts were there to watch Jack open presents. Then we had a lovely, fancy breakfast. Afterwards we visited Nona & Papap before I had to leave for work, but everyone else stayed for a lamb dinner.
On Christmas Eve we visited with the McCaffrey family at Becki’s house. It’s one of my favorite traditions. We always take a big cousin photo, have a fun grab bag and enjoy gabbing with everyone!
And on the weekend between Christmas and New Years we always have Weber Christmas. I always love seeing the whole big clan. This year I suggested anUgly Festive Sweater Contest. So many people got into it! Uncle Ricky was the judge and awarded Mark the prize hat! I hope we can pass on the hat over the years and start a new tradition!
I love spending this season with all of these amazing people in my life. I can’t believe how lucky I am to be related to them!
