Fam in jammies, a Christmas Eve photo journal
Christmas Eve 2019
We wore our matching jammies, listened to Christmas tunes, prepped a huge feast, and gathered together around the dinner table for Christmas Eve.
Beyond the lights, the decorations, the music, and the presents, it’s FAMILY that makes this day so special to me.
Some random thoughts and gratitudes about this:
My brother drove in from Flagstaff in a crazy near blizzard, and he just graduated from college AND just started a new job immediately after graduating so it was so so good to have him with us.
I haven’t spent a Christmas with my siblings and parents all together like this in I think 5 years.
My sister’s in-laws are my family too.
This was also my first holiday spent with my nephew and niece, and I feel like Christmas is way more festive with little kids! They made me feel like a kid again too.
And having my fiance there too, it’s like having my whole heart in one place all together.
We actually opened all the presents under the tree before 9pm on Christmas Eve! It started with “only one present after dinner” rule and then of course, we lose our restraints and soon the kids are stacking up their presents to open and everyone is laughing and having the best time. Merry Christmas from me and my family to you and yours!
Thank you for being a part of my journey.
