I am hoping that everyone has a safe, wonderful Christmas - whether you're home nestled all warm with your family or travelling across state/country to visit the ones you love.
For us, we've had two of our three Christmas celebrations so far.
The first was on Saturday. We drove 2 1/2 hours each way to visit my parents and brother for the day. While the visit was short, we did have time for two meals together, some exchanging of gifts, and a chance to just sit and talk.
The second was for our immediate household of three last night. After a wonderful dinner made by my wife, we went to the 9pm Christmas Vigil at the church. When we got home, it was time to open a few presents - that way our 12 year old wouldn't have us up at the crack of dawn to see what was under the tree. That was a lot of fun.
This afternoon, it is a short drive twenty minutes to my inlaws' house. There we'll do dinner and a few more presents.
So take time today and this holiday season to remember what is important to you. Spend that time with family and good friends.
