memories of a christmas past.

Way back...

 

-When my future husband had hair the same length as mine

-When we decorated his first tree as an adult living on his own

-When the tree topper of choice (for him) was a bird feather

-When I was still trying to hook this guy for good, so I didn't complain about the feather

-When we were both still poor college students

-When we were 20 and 21 in 2007,

 

We celebrated our first Christmas together.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

There was a lot of love and laughter to be had that night.

I remember feeling so grown up...celebrating my first Christmas with this amazing boyfriend.

We exchanged presents and kisses.

 

Now five years later, we're coming upon yet another Christmas celebration.

I cannot believe I'm still lucky enough to celebrate it with my most favorite person.

The tree is decorated (with an actual star, since I now feel comfortable to speak my mind about dumb decorating ideas.)

We'll exchange presents and kisses.

And it will be amazing.

 

xoxo, wife.
