My mom is somewhere over Utah right now. She should be here soon (she got bumped off an earlier overbooked flight for some mad perks) and then we\u2019ll eat a ham.<\/p>\n
We\u2019ve also held off on opening any of the presents that came in the mail until my mom gets here, so we\u2019ll have more of a Christmas night than a Christmas morning (unless we just decide to wait until tomorrow and pretend it\u2019s the 25th all over again).<\/p>\n
Either way, it\u2019s been a pretty uneventful day. It certainly is quite different from last year, when we had Katie\u2019s entire family over, and it\u2019ll be a bit different next year when we have an infant.<\/p>\n
I suppose every Christmas is different, but it\u2019s hard not to be excited, not only for the love that surrounds me and Katie this Christmas, but for our future Christmases, when we\u2019ll have milk and cookies, presents from Santa, and another little heart to fill with joy and love.<\/p>\n
I hope all of your Christmases were joyful and that you enjoy whatever time you have off for the remainder of the year. May your stomachs be full, your families healthy, and your loves requited.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
