Wow- I can't believe Christmas is a week away! Crazy! Unfortunately, Matt and I both have to work Christmas day so we won't be able to enjoy the Christmas holiday with our family. I am dreading this.... I have never spent Christmas away from my parents and siblings... sad. Matt and I already went home for "Christmas" in the beginning of December. We were able to see most of our family and some of our good friends. This was great, but it flew by so fast! We were not able to stop and see everyone that we wanted to see. I guess we better get used to that since we live across the state now. Going home just warmed my heart. It was so great to be home on the farm... I miss it out there and I really miss my family and friends. Oh man- I got teary eyed every time we left any place to go see the next visitors!
Since Matt and I both work on Christmas, we have decided to celebrate Christmas together by making a nice meal and opening some presents on the Wednesday before Christmas on our day off together. Still thinking about what I should make for the meal.... hmmm. I think that another thing that is going to make this so hard is that I can't go to church on Christmas Eve or Christmas. I have never missed mass during the holiday season... I love going to church during the Christmas season, especially because Jesus is the reason we celebrate this holiday.... Oh hum... so many adjustments!
On a happier note- I guess this really is the beginning of mine and Matt's life together as a family... We shall celebrate Christmas as a family with our little monsters, Mario and Luigi! Yes, I did buy the monsters some Christmas presents :D
