Our First Christmas!

I know this post is significantly delayed but Matt has been working on some other photography projects and had just not gotten around to uploading our Christmas pictures and sharing them.

We decided to stay at home this year and spend Christmas just the two of us since it was our first Christmas married. We had a super fun morning opening the gifts we had chosen for each other. We limited ourselves to $125 each and we each made a list of things we wanted, needed and a gift that represented Christmas to us. It was a great way to do it and I think we will keep it up for sure.

After we opened gifts and had yummy breakfast, we spent the day lounging, napping, playing board games and enjoying time together. All together GREAT Christmas!

Here are some pictures from that day and the couple of days before.


Matt got me some new scented oils for my oil burner. WOO!
