Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas from our little family to yours!  Hudson was so cute with all of his presents and was so excited.  Christmas Day we drove to St. Augustine and it was fun to be with my granddad and uncle!  I loved our first Christmas card as a married couple.  Looking forward to many, many more that we hopefully actually get to spend together! :)

 

And a few from Christmas Eve...

 

Isla Mujeres

We had an amazing trip to Isla Mujeres!  Other than missing Jimmy (and Brienne and Ken, etc.) it couldn’t have been a better trip.  We had great weather, food, and company.  Our house was incredible!  We had our own private beach and plenty of space.  We hope to make the trip an annual event and stay at the same house.  I was able to do my fav Isla Mujeres things…enjoying margaritas at the soggy peso, after dinner drinks at faynes, golf cart riding, breakfast at mango’s, dinner at rolandi’s…ahhh heaven.  I was also able to do a few new things like zip line and visit this very strange interesting “island” made from plastic bottles…haha!  Here are some fun pics from the trip…

TAKE ME BACK! 

Christmas Craziness

Unfortunately, Jimmy will be working this Christmas and NYE so that is definitely putting a little damper on our (my) holidays.  But, we were able to go to our supper clubs tacky sweater party before he had to head back for 28 long days! :*(

I’ve attended the first of two cookie exchanges and I have an ornament exchange tomorrow night with my besties. 

My mom was in town this past weekend to celebrate Christmas early since everyone has so much going on.  We had a nice, short visit and we had so much fun taking Hudson to see the James Island County Park lights and Santa.  How stinkin’ sweet is this face?

Kingslea, Jimmy’s sis, graduated from MUSC this past weekend so we celebrated at Red Drum and met Santa again there!

I helped Jimmy’s mom decorate her tree tonight as she is recovering from hip replacement surgery.  That was fun since I decided not to do a real tree at our house this year since it will just be me and my lonesome.  Sad! 

This year, the adults in our family decided to take a trip in lieu of presents.  It has really been a great decision so far, because it has really cut down on the stress of having to find presents for everyone. We are heading to Mexico in two days!  Although, it won’t be the same without Jimmy since Isla Mujeres is one of our favorite vaca spots. 

December is such a fun, busy month!  Just missing the hubs especially hard during the holidays!
