Falalala

 Photos of DH and I, Christmas 2014. For the past few years we've been having our Christmas Day alone as the kids have their own Christmas and don't have to travel that day. They can just spend the day with their little ones. DH and I get to enjoy our peaceful, relaxing day and then have our get together with the kids and all our sweet grandkids on a different day. With our own kids I remember years of rushing to open our gifts then running to 2 different grandparents' homes and it was just a rushed day. I don't want that for our grandkids.
