Christmas Post

Yeah, i know this is a little late, but better late than never!! Marco and I spent Christmas here together in Raleigh.... just us two. Next year we will be with family, which will be nice. I love marco and all, but i really feel like holiday's are family time, and i missed houses full of family, food, and laughter (among other things!!)

Anyway, Marco was sick Christmas Eve, not very pleasant..... for either of us... he was all stuffed up and sniffling all night, and couldn't get comfortable, so neither of us slept very well..... finally at 6, after hours of tossing and turning he said to me... since we can't sleep, do you want to open presents. He was so funny about the whole thing... we had some presents under the tree and he asked me almost every day if he could open them..... he's not very good at waiting. He wanted to open them christmas eve, but i wouldn't let him (although i did let him open his stocking). So, Christmas morning i got him to go outside to the car and get the camera.... so while he was doing that i rushed the rest of the gifts that i had been hiding in the closet down stairs.... when he got back he was like... oh my, more presents. where did they come from?? it was so much fun doing christmas with him... he hasn't had a christmas like that before. In honduras they have a big party christmas eve and visit all their friends and eat lots of food.... it's just one huge fiesta, so this here has been a little different.


Marco with some chocolates.some gift cards to Lowes so he can get tools!!

His camel pack..... i think this was the gift he was most excited about.... he's been lookinig at them at various stores for WEEKS now!!

no, we're not expecting, but my mom did send us our baby's first toy..... on the inside of the wrapping paper she wrote that she saw this and had to buy it cause it was orange and she thought of us...
Marco got me a juicer..... it's been great. we've had lots of fresh juice.... so far my favorites are orange pineapple, and orange apple kiwi.... mmmm mmmmm good!!
