Christmas Day


Tuesday | Christmas Day_0:47

Christmas at the Broersma/Boeve family was great. We started out with a nice Breakfast dinner and then went right into opening the Christmas presents. I wasn’t expecting much but ended up getting a bunch of writable CD’s (with cases), film, computer screen wipes, and some kick’in gift certificates to Star Theater, American Eagle, and Barnes & Nobles :-) Thanks Wayne & Kathy!

Jodi also loved her gifts. I got her the movie Shrek, along with this frame set she wanted and a wooden frame that said ‘LOVE’ and had a picture of us in it . She made me a wonderful creative booklet that told me how much she loved me and later that night had a candle light picnic with Sparkling Juice. It was very special.

Christmas is a wonderful time of year not just for the receiving but also for the giving. Jamie (Jodi’s older brother) gave his girlfriend Erin an engagement ring and we also found out later that she was going to be having a baby - wow - what a night.

Later today Jodi and I will be heading over to my parents house for some holiday cheer. This is more than just a get together for jodi and I with my family - it’s also the first time she’s ever seen my house.

I can’t get into why she hasn’t already been inside the house I grew up in but it’s a pretty big step in our relationship. I understand if you aren’t following along.

So Christmas 1 is done and Christmas 2 is coming up in about 9 hours. Snow is on the ground and love is in the air. Keep the spirit alive in your own homes and don’t forget what Christmas is all about.
