christmas day was spent with just us in the morning, then my fam for christmas lunch, 

and then an all-nighter at JB’s parents.

i love the holiday season.  but sometimes it is easy to get caught up in the busy-ness of it all.

Christmas eve dinner we opted to stay in and cuddle up with just the two of us. 

JB grilled lobster and steak, made mashed potatoes & corn dressing.

his prayer was so sweet.

they always are but you know the ones that are just extra meaningful?  i love those kind.
