Normally every year at Christmas time Daniel and I make a whirlwind, cross country, 3 or 4 leg trip to Texas and Pennsylvania to visit both of our families. While we love seeing our families at this time, especially all our little nieces and nephews, it really is an expensive endeavor. Plus we have to leave our cats which makes us worried, and makes us feel like we're burdening our neighbor who comes and checks on them.
SO.... this year we have decided to spend Christmas in Colorado.... our home. Doesn't that sound nice?
I said to Daniel the other day, "So, we're just going to stay here and do nothing?"
And he responded with, "Oh, we're not going to do nothing! We're going to go spend a couple days in a lodge in the mountains, and we're going to go iceskating, and snowshoeing, and we're going to read books in front of a fireplace, and we're going to bake cookies....."
"Oh."
Wow! How exciting! And to think that despite living in Colorado for over five years, I have never once gotten to look at the Rocky Mountains on Christmas morning! I'm very much looking forward to the experience this year!
