This year, Christmas was extra special for us since it would be the last time that our little family would be a threesome. Don't get me wrong, we can't wait for the little guy to be here, but there was something special about celebrating this last Christmas season with just each other and Lucy.
Our holiday weekend began on Friday night with our traditional Christmas "morning". Since we planned to head up to NJ/NY on Saturday morning, we had to celebrate our family Christmas on Friday night. Ed and I started the evening with a wonderful dinner at Clyde's of Reston and stopped by our neighbors house for a little holiday shin dig (thanks Suzy and Glenn!). After a quick drink (for Ed of course), we headed home, put on our Christmas jamies, pumped up the holiday tunes and started opening gifts.
Lucy started with her BIG gift ~ one that Ed was SOOOO excited for. We wrapped it up with some treats so that she would tear into the paper which she did. She grabbed the treats and ran which wasn't quite the reaction Ed wanted, but she grew to love her new bed later that night. Along with some treats and toys, Lucy was a happy camper. :)
Ed and I didn't do to shabby either. I got some great stuff including new Ugg snow boots, the Cook Like a Rock Star Anne Burrell cookbook (new fav Food Network diva), some goodies for my camera (making the bloggers life easier), an iTunes gift card to upgrade my operating system and lots o' money to get prenatal massages. SCORE!!
Ed's Santa loot included a new pair of Cole Haan shoes, a manly circular saw with extra blades, a Bob Marley onesie for James, sexy message collar stays and Apple TV.
All in all, it was a great Christmas morning for our little threesome. Life is going to be very different next year, and we can't wait...but it was nice to take advantage of our time together this year. Next up...Christmas Eve in New Jersey with the Basile family. Stay tuned!
