Why is it that no matter what age you are, we all feel the
need to ask the proverbial question: what did you get for Christmas?? Even as
an adult, we still compare notes after the holiday. At work, my fiancé and his
coworker compared Home Depot gift cards. My BFF and I discussed iPhones and
coffee makers…a far cry from the days of Nintendo games and ‘NSYNC cd’s. Even
though the gifts might change as we get older, the sentiment still remains: we
want to make sure we got better gifts than our friends.
This year, we were thrilled to find that Santa brought us a
Keurig coffee maker. It sure was a surprise considering neither my fiancé nor I
drink coffee. But ever so thoughtful, Santa was sure to include Hot Cocoa! We were
also lucky enough to get a minor kitchen renovation for Christmas, so we spent
the last few days sipping hot cocoa in our beautiful new kitchen (the first
finished room in the entire house). Please enjoy a look at the “original”
kitchen. Last year when we bought it, this is the sad sight that greeted us. I’ll
post pics of the “new” kitchen soon!
