We didn't get on a plane this year - we aren't driving anywhere for the holidays.
In fact, this is the first year we haven't traveled somewhere for the holidays ... well, I guess, ever! This is the real classic Christmas for us - from the red brick fireplace with 4 stockings, a Christmas tree with piles of inexpensive yet thoughtful gifts underneath, bikes for the boys and a play kitchen for the girl.
And yes, in case you're wondering - I put the bikes together myself. I feel it's kinda a rite of passage for a father of boys (read: I'm too cheap to spring for the $25 assembly fee). I just made that up tonight, but I like it ...
Christmas Eve ... actually Christmas Day, now ... 12:45 AM and Santa's getting tired. Merry Christmas from the Griffins!
