So, for our first Christmas, Scott and I spent our time with the Kirby's. Scott's family is a lot of fun, and we get along really well. His parents were so nice to me and really included me in the Christmas festivities. Scott and I both got Ipods, I got the 2g shuffle in the green I wanted! I hate the 3g shuffles- they stink, and apple stopped making the 2g, but they found me one! I was so happy- it is perfect for working out. We opened most of our gifts on Christmas Eve, but there were still gifts from Santa come Christmas morning. Traditionally my family eats crab for Christmas eve dinner, so eating the Kirby Chicken Chili and homemade breadsticks was quite a change, but it was quite good, Gaye has some yummy recipes, although they all involve meat, which I am getting used to...mostly :).
On the 26th we flew out to sunny California to ring in the New Year with my fam, and we spent it, of course, in good old Disneyland. My parents got Scott and I plane tickets and Disneyland tickets for Christmas- it was the best, I love nothing more than spending time with the people I love, I couldn't ask for a better gift. Disneyland was way fun, but I have never been in a more crowded place, than Disneyland on New Years Eve- holy smokes, there wasn't even standing room! But we rocked hard and had a blast- here is proof:
Here is everyone in our New Year gear! (I hate this picture but everyone else looks good!)
On the SUPER exciting Bugs Life "smelly" ride where you travel at 2 mph and get to smell different smells ha ha ha
"It' Tough to be a Bug" 3D show- this was Scott's first 3D show, well his first REAL 3D, Avatar so did not count :D
We should become Circus Clowns- we packed six of us in here! I dare you to beat that!
All in all the holiday was amazing. Scott and I had such a great vacation, and he was glad to get to know my family a bit better. He fits right in. I think my favorite moments were when I would climb in by my mom in bed to give her a good night cuddle, and Scott would climb right in and cuddle her other side- he is so comfortable and loving with my family, and it is just one of those other little things that let me know what a winner I have married.
I hope you all had as great a holiday as we did, and that this new year brings you lots of joy and fun memories!
Love, the Kirbys
