My parents were in the cities watching my niece and nephew, so they came by on Saturday afternoon for a delayed mini-Christmas celebration.
As mentioned in my previous post, I was not feeling well on Christmas Eve. I took a home test on Christmas Day and was positive for Influenza-A. December tends to be a rough month on me. Thankfully, by this point, all the planning was done, and that was left was just execution and pure fun. We didn't go anywhere and half of us stayed in our pajamas the whole day. I really love this crew and enjoyed spending this holiday with them. Here's a collection of photos from the gift opening. Not pictured: watching newly released episodes of the Taylor Swift docuseries and Stranger Things and playing a lot of Mario Kart World.
We had a nice lead up to Christmas, hosting some good friends for a Peruvian chicken dinner on Thursday (completely unphotographed!), and then having Linda join us for Christmas Eve. We went to church and had our traditional tamale dinner.
We made a little outing of getting a Christmas tree this year, stopping first at Fair State Brewing for some fresh Farina Rosa bagels and coffee (it was morning). They threw in this four-pack of IPA cans for FREE!
It was a lovely Christmas morning at home.
