Christmas Party

Tonight we had a Christmas party for Caleb's mother's side of the family. Caleb was there for about an hour then headed home to go to bed since he has to be at work by 2:00am. This is the last week of this schedule...and I could not be more excited. The party tonight was fun. I was not really in the mood for pictures maybe because being solo in a picture is not always flattering unless you are a toddler or baby. Between my sister-n-laws and mother-n-law out to snap a couple. I think they got every body part but my face tonight. Even if you photoshop them together there is no chance of getting anything out of it. YIPPEE.

I cannot believe how close Christmas is...This week. I should hopefully find out tomorrow what time Cort is calling home. It is kinda hard to plan around something when you have no idea when it is happening. I hope he calls in the morning while we are at my parents otherwise I am not sure how we are going to juggle everything.

Can traditions be broken? Is there such thing as a free pass? If a tradition doesn't happen one year and does the next is it still considered a tradition? Caleb and I both feel that some traditions this year have or will be broken. I guess we will just have to see. We still have a few days for these to happen.

Who would have guessed????

Caleb saves the day. He worked on our tree lights and we are back to 100%. There is no more black hole of death. All I can say is he is amazing. We all knew that well before him working on the lights. He has been and will be working a weird shift until Christmas. He goes to bed around 5:30pm and I get home from work around 6:00pm. During the week it has been hard not seeing him. The pro to his schedule is he gets off work by 10:00am. Who wouldn't love to be off that early? But there is no way this girl could get up and be out of the house by 1:30am. We both look forward to the weekends to have time to spend with each other. I have been taking full advantage. I love to sit on the couch, put my head on his chest and cuddle up to him.

I am a girl who loves countdowns. I sent out an email to a couple of people on the 30th letting them know there is 25 days until Christmas. I also apologized that they will have to put up with me between now and then. As of today we are at 23 days. Happy Holidays.
