Pink boxing gloves & a gun

This is a much delayed Christmas post!

Christmas is definitely my favorite holiday. I love the baking, family gatherings and giving gifts to others. Of the gives we gave, my fave was the hardbound book I made of Tatey's senior pictures. I hope she'll have it for a long time and know how much we love her.

Tyler did such a good job with Christmas gifts this year! He gave me pink boxing gloves & workout gear for the hi intensity training I started Jan. 5. He also gave me a tiny handgun and signed me up for classes to get my permit to carry and an hour of personalized help. I'd been wanting this - figure I should be more knowledgeable and comfortable since I have guns around me. He gave me wonderful framed sayings that I've hung in our entryway. They're encouraging and tastefully designed. WTG babe!

Our families totally spoiled us!!  We got so many lovely things - sweatshirts, scarves, jewelry, art, books, etc. And it was delightful to spend time around the table just talking and sharing. It's always fun to get Christmas cards too and see/hear what everyone's up to. I do love photos in cards - the Daniel's & Agan's were definitely some of my faves this year! I still have all the cards up on our wall. :)

Now to wait til next Christmas....
