Home for the Holidays

Alright, here is the holiday post starting with thanksgiving haha. 

The way Stevens schedule works is they work every other holiday trading off with the other section, so Steven was lucky enough to get Thanksgiving off, we invited people to come over if they wanted, but it seems everyone already had their own plans so, I mad a big turkey thanksgiving meal for the two of us. :) 


For Christmas Steven had to work 5 days in a row yuck! so we opened our stockings the night before he went to work, but with luck they were nice enough to let some of the people go home on call or however they would want to phrase it. So we ended up blessed enough to have Steven home around noon on Christmas eve and had to go back to work at noon on Christmas day. It was really nice to be able to celebrate a little of both days :). on Christmas eve we drove around to look at lights in the area, but we were a little disappointed. The locals don't seem to decorate like we were hoping. and of course on Christmas morning we woke up super early and opened gifts! I finally got that sewing machine I have been wanting! hahaha, and Steven got tools, though i don't know what he plans on doing with them. 


Here is our tree this year, it turned out pretty good don't you think? 


Here is My parents tree, they saved putting up their tree and decorating it for when i came to visit after thanksgiving, (in other words) they didn't want to do it themselves because its to much work digging out all the boxes and decorations from the storage space under their stairs. It was just a quick 3 day trip to get the license plates for Stevens truck, since they wouldn't mail them to me and i had to be there in person to show my drivers license, i think its dumb but oh well it gave me an excuse to visit some of my friends and family, to bad i didn't get to see everyone.
