Merry Christmas!!! Zac's first Christmas!!!
We had a very simple Christmas this year. Since we had made a few large purchases this year including some larger medical expenses to get little man here, we decided not to buy any presents this year...we almost didn't even get a Christmas tree. I did get one, but it was only a small 4' tree.
We did put up lights on the house. It was 80 degrees outside and Jer and Cody did it in shorts and a t-shirt and were worried about getting sunburned!
Christmas eve we went over to our friends house for games and food. We played a few games and got some really good laughs in. Unfortunately, now that we are responsible parents, we had to leave around 8:30 to put the kid to bed...as much as we would like to stay, little man gets VERY grumpy when it is time for bed so it really isn't fun for anyone if we make him stay up.
As far as gifts go, I...I mean Santa...did get us something for our stockings. Jer and I got new slippers and Zac got some bath toys. Since he is now starting to sit up better, bath time is much more fun and these toys are perfect for chewing on in the tub.
Other than opening our stockings and a few small gifts from family and friends, we just spent the day relaxing. We went to dinner at a friends house which was very nice to not have to cook. It is hard to make a good Christmas dinner for just 2 people. I did make candied yams for the first time ever in my life. People said they tasted good, I wouldn't know, I don't care for them at all so they just tasted like yams to me.
