though christmas is not yet officially over according to a; my wife, and b; the legendary 12 days of christmas song, which coincidentally would make today the 5th day of christmas, or the day of giving the five golden rings, it is close enough for me to attempt to tie it up in a nice tidy bow. christmas was a little different for us this year, but equally as good, if not better in some ways than all of the others. we got to spend some time with relatives that we only see once or twice a year, do the annual snow-tubing, skating, the annual movie with my dad and bro in law, and miscellaneous other activities as well as get together on christmas day as an extended family for the first time in ages and again a couple of days later with my folks and the rest of our family. we had to say goodbye to a good friend and had to go to a wake and funeral the weekend after christmas which was obviously very difficult. it did help me realize the importance of friends and relationships inside of family and out that we are so grateful and fortunate to have. i hope everyone was able to enjoy christmas and was able to recognize and acknowledge the true meaning and spirit.
here are my pics.
