First Holiday

Last 2012 was the first time we got to celebrate the Holidays as a married couple. Since both our families have our own traditions and our own ways on how we celebrate Christmas and New Year, we had to arrive at a perfect compromise on which side we'll go to for each holiday event. 

It wasn't much of a long discussion actually, gift-giving on Christmas is a big event at my house ever since I was a kid and I know it's the Garcia boys' tradition to greet the New Year with a BANG, well, it's more of my dad-in-law and JM's actually... 

So, we came to an agreement where we'll have an early dinner at the Garcia's on 24th December and then spend the rest of the Christmas eve with the Sollers and then have an early dinner at the Soller's on 31st December and then greet the New Year with the Garcias.

And, of course, we won't let our first holiday pass without a photo opp at the comfort of our own bare home with our very first and cutesy Christmas tree.

What I love about this set up and being married, in general, is we get to celebrate Christmas and New Year, not just once but two times all in one day! Isn't that awesome?!?
