Christmas in... February?

No, actually, this is the first of a few retro-posts that will be popping up intermittently (though it's entirely plausible that I would still have a Christmas tree up, given my love of the holiday season... and my penchant for procrastination.). I have some pics from last year that I never printed, posted, emailed, or otherwise employed in a useful manner, and if I don't post them here, they will wither away in a digital wasteland.

First up: The Cutest and Best Christmas Gift Anyone Could Ever Want

Awwwwwwwww! How cute is that?

Christmas 2010 was our first Christmas as a married couple (me and Dylan, that is--not me and Bailey). We (well, OK, more like "I") like the idea of creating new traditions together. We came up with the idea of buying one new ornament every year, so that someday we will have a tree decorated with the memories of our years together (have I mentioned that "Cheesefest" was a close contender for the blog title?).

Here is our first ornament:












Yes, that's right. There's nothing there. So much for traditions. Maybe we can make it a tradition to plan to buy, but not actually buy, an ornament every year. At least it'd be easier to take down the tree.
