12/25 - daniel and i celebrate our very first christmas together early in the morning, around our beautiful christmas tree!

then, onkens. breakfast. stockings. gifts. flanegins. food. gifts [opened one at a time, as usual, complete with passing gifts around for each person to experience themselves... this process always takes ages]. then games [as is not only customary, but necessary at flanegin festivities. or any gathering at all, no matter how few people].

12/26 - onkens. leftovers. scattergories.
12/27 - lunch with laura. my mom and i threw a surprise shower for jeff and lauren!
12/28 - church with friends. lunch with other friends. onkens. yahtzee. emperor's new groove.
12/29 - jazzercize. coffee with laura. shopping. winter coat for daniel! cider with dianna.

phew!

tomorrow daniel and i celebrate SEVEN MONTHS of marriage, and so we're going to the new pf chang's with a sweet gift card we were generously given.

new year's eve, the whole flanegin crew has our annual gathering at the charthouse in downtown annapolis for dinner. yum!

thursday, we bring in the new year with my dearest friend heather c's parents for dinner.

i miss you too! I've been thinking about you recently, and how LONG it has been since we have communicated. this season will do that to ya! but it sounds like a very merry season for you guys!
"jazzercise"--I'm glad you thought of that on your own, cause I have been meaning to mention it to you as a "dance/workout" alternative to more expensive classes. plus my seester has so much fun doing it. says its just a "fun atmosphere" I hope you had fun too :)
congratulations on 7mo :) we just "celebrated" 19 mo. :) how fun.
totally jealous that you get to go to my parents house! i miss them!
I hope we can talk soon! merry christmas :)
