So, we began our Christmas visiting Marathon in Whitby this year, with Sarah & Lucas in their new home.
This is also the first year that we started our visiting before Christmas Eve and with someone other than Jay's mom.
Since we are both new homeowners and on tighter budgets this year, we decided to not buy each other Christmas gifts. But, we had not seen each other since before Sarah & Jay's Birthday's, and mine & Lucas's are coming up in January & February.
So Sarah came up with Birthdays at Christmas Celebration Weekend! Yeah! So, we had our Christmas visit and still had stuff to open. This is only the second year of 7 New Years Eve's that won't be spent with Sarah & Lucas. Jay & I are not off this week, so we can't travel down south, and Lucas is not off either so they can't travel up North.
But, we celebrated like we usally do with drinks and one of Sarah's nice dinners. We got treated to a super yummy dinner of pulled pork sandwiches!
For my birthday, I got sheep slippers (which was extra cool because I forgot to pack some), a new purple scarf crocheted by Sarah herself, purple mittens, Penguin & Snowmen serving dishes. (Which will come in handy for my housewarming on January 10th)
I also got my first housewarming gift which was a wrouhgt iron and glass sun to hang on the wall which also holds candles.
