Merry Christmas

I hope you all have a wonderful holiday with your friends and family! We are going to stay in Portland for Christmas and spend the weekend relaxing at home. A couple of friends are coming over for dinner Christmas eve but besides that I’ll probably split my time between PJ’s and running clothes.

I really love Christmas and after a rough start ended up really getting into the spirit. Our apartment is all decorated with lots of presents under the tree. We’ve had a bunch of fun get-togethers with friends over the last couple of weeks. Plus of course all the holiday music, the twinkling lights, the classic Christmas movies, and plenty of egg nog and cookies.

The best part of this Christmas is that our family is all well. William and Melanie in San Diego are making great progress in their recovery and we look forward to spending time with them soon. And our parents in Montana are doing good, toughing out a cold and snowy winter like it ain’t no thing. Zach and I come from really good stock, I’m proud to say. :)

We are extremely blessed to have such amazing and inspiring people in our lives. I’m really savoring this Christmas and letting myself soak in all the love and hope I can.

Have a Very Merry Christmas everyone!
