Nathan and I celebrated our first Christmas married this year. It was nice to have our new apartment through the holidays. This Christmas felt different. It was the first without my parents and sisters. It was nice to talk to everyone on Christmas and hear of their joy and love. Nathan and I opted not to buy each other gifts this year because we spent a lot on our apartment, but our 1 year anniversary is in a month so we are saving everything for that. The new year is coming and I hope you all ring it is with cheer. The picture is us at the Kroghs house. They adopted us this year.
