I love the holidays!!! It means spending time with my family and my eventual in-laws. I wish more people could remember that the holidays aren't all about getting gifts, they are for remembering what is important to you and what is important in our lives.
This Thanksgiving, I got to meet the parents...finally LOL. It was great...way too much food, but still great. It was a big weekend....Preston met EVERYONE from both sides of my family and I got to meet his as well. It was so nice. His family cracks me up.
This Christmas, I told my mom not to get me anything, I already have everything I could want. I told her that she should donate whatever money she would have spent on me. Honestly, one of the best feelings you can have at Christmas is the feeling of giving. On Christmas Eve, I went to my Grandma's house for dinner, unfortunately Preston had to work. On a positive though, my cousin K.C. surprised us all with a visit. You don't realize how much you miss someone until they are gone. On Christmas day, we had breakfast at Preston's house. His dad cooks some delicious pancakes :) and then we went to my mom's for Christmas lunch. Preston gave me the most beautiful bracelet and a necklace and earrings....I gave him a hand made Cowboy's blanket...and we watched the Cowboy's game that night. It was such a nice Christmas.
The new year is approaching so quickly! I am very excited for it!!! It means so many new challenges are headed our way and I cannot wait to see what they are :D
On a different note....
I joined a gym. I'd like to get back to the body I had in high school. I don't have unrealistic expectations, I'd just like to get back in shape. Its crazy, you don't realize it, but when you settle down with someone, suddenly you don't seem to care as much about working out and staying in shape hahahahaha. I know though that Preston will love me no matter what I look like.....unless I gained like 300 lbs. he might have a problem with it then LOL
