Matt was off on Christmas Eve, but I had to work a half day. Once I wrapped up, we ran a few errands and finished up our Christmas shopping. That evening, we had much to do to prepare for our holiday trip. So, most of Christmas Eve found us prepping our house for vacation, packing our bags, and wrapping gifts (although we did manage to make it to church for a candlelight Christmas Eve service).
At about 10:30 p.m., we finally found time for ourselves. Matt and I relaxed on the couch in our living room with mugs of hot chocolate and the sounds of Christmas CDs filling the air. Our Christmas decorations were the only thing that lit the room, and it was beautiful (the photo below gives you an idea, but it really doesn't do it justice). Matt and I really enjoyed our much needed break from the hustle and bustle of the rest of the day. After our relaxation time, we finished what needed to be done around the house and hit the bed around 2 a.m.
