Your Christmas may have been awesome, but was it....
get in a minor (no injury, slid into a ditch) car accident,
Rent a car,
Meet your first nephew for the first time,
Go to church with your in-laws,
Stumble across teenage photos of your husband,
Find this sign posted at a restaurant,
Stop at In-N-Out Burger,
Discover an unexplained giant eyeball in Dallas,
Eat your first-ever first tamale, watch Angel run away from a seemingly random Pitbull and German Shepherd wandering around downtown, and stay up late to open all presents at the stroke of midnight on Christmas Eve kind of awesome? I doubt it.
*Yes, I realize that some of these events were not awesome, but I choose to take the strategy of relishing the adventure that is life, though in the moment I might (and did) cry over a few car dents.
Hoping you all had a merry and adventurous Christmas!
Merry Christmas! Sounds like you got to experience lots of firsts, sounds awesome to me!
Definitely looks like an eventful Christmas! Well done on looking on the bright and adventurous side! (aren't teenage pictures of husbands weird?)
Wow you had a lot going on! And aside from the driving mishap, everything seems pretty awesome!
Never a dull moment with you. I suppose your Christmas would be just as random and exciting. I would love to know more about this giant eyeball. I may be heading out to Texas next year. It has now just become my life's mission to see the giant eyeball.
Nope I haven't had a Xmas like that, lol. But guess what Rachel, see that Xmas wrapping paper in the above photo, the red one with the white snowmen? I got Xmas presents wrapped up in the very same paper some years ago. Glad no one got hurt in the minor car accident.
Sounds like your Christmas was fun minus the car accident!
Sounds like a great Christmas. :-)
Yikes! Glad you are all okay and able to enjoy such an awesome christmas! ;-)

Oh no! I'm sorry about the car accident, but I'm glad the rest of your Christmas was great! Isn't it amazing how sometimes nothing seems to go right, and then everything is perfect because it's Christmas?
I love the way you wrote this post- totally copied you for my Christmas recap ;)

looks like you had lots of adventures, which hopefully means lots of stories and memories :) what did you think of that first tamale?
There were some definite ups and downs but it sounds like you had a great Christmas! I hope you enjoyed In N Out and those tamales, I think I take both of those delicacies for granted ;)
Boo about the car accident but glad it wasn't worse!! And that eyeball and the sign!! Definitely random!! Hope you had a great Christmas!!
Sounds like a packed Christmas!
Glad that the car accident wasn't worse!
Away From The Blue
Glad your accident wasn't worse! I get so nervous driving around this time of year. I'm literally like an old lady on the roads if there's even a sprinkling of snow on them! haha
Ok i have a lot of things to say....
1. That totally sucks that you got in an accident!
2. I love love love finding photos of my husband in HS. You need to hold onto those if you ever need to threaten him in the future.
3. That sign is hilarious! Where was that? Great people entering that establishment.....haha
OH MY GOSH THAT SIGN. YES. Just yes.
Lol the giant eye ball , can't decide whether it's weird or funny. Hope you are enjoying your holidays :)
Aw, your nephew is so cute! Sorry about the car accident, uh oh!

Glad you guys are safe, hope the car wasn't totaled too badly. Looks like you had a great Christmas otherwise! :)

Your Christmas sounds pretty eventful! That eyeball takes the cake though, whaaaat is that all about?! Hope you have a great new years ;)

Oh my goodness! I'm glad you're both ok and that the accident wasn't too terrible. What a rotten way to start your Christmas vacation! I'm glad you still had a good time though. Your nephew is precious!
your nephew is totally adorable. and in-n-out might possibly be one of my favorite restaurants of all time. sad to say that, but it is SO GOOD!
That sounds like a lot to take in kind of holiday! It sounds like it still ended on a good note!
After the accident, it sounds like a magical holiday. Thankfully you are both okay. That giant eye-ball made me giggle. It's so random which is why it is so hilarious. :)
