Our First Christmas - 2009


This Christmas was the best I've ever had. When we were putting up the tree, it was my old tree from years before and it was falling apart, so we packed it back in it's box and headed to Home Depot. Together we picked out a new tree- OUR very own. Then we picked out decorations and lights. It was such a small thing, but it was so fun doing it together. We set everything up that night and our Christmas decorating was done. Shortly after, presents started appearing under the tree- "To Chad, Love Ryan." I love presents and I get so excited to wrap them and make them look pretty. :) Chad knows how excited I get and so he made sure to show me all the boxes that were for me before he wrapped them, but I wasn't allowed to touch them or shake them. Christmas Day was wonderful! We woke up and sat around our little tree ...exchanged our presents one at a time...Chad is so thoughtful. He got me an IPOD- I've never had one of my own and he knew I would never buy it for myself. It's purple! He always gets me the best there is. His face didn't light up when he opened his new DC hoodie, but he wears it everyday so I know he loves it. He wanted something he could "play" with. Electronics, remote controlled things, BluRay DVDS - except he already had everything I could think of. Except- a video camera to take jeeping. BINGO. :) He was excited when he opened that one. After our little Christmas morning, we went across the street for breakfast at his parent's house. I loved that too. I love family and I love that his is so close. We had a great Christmas!!
