New Traditions-The Maholland Christmas

John's mom decided to begin a new tradition this year for Christmas. Every year now John's parents and brothers plus me will eat dinner and open gifts from each other on Christmas Eve-Eve. We kicked off the tradition last night. It was nice to start Christmas early! We had one amazing dinner, my future mother-in-law is one heck of a cook, and we enjoyed presents from each other! Afterward we played Twister, John and I got Luke that for Christmas!
It's really nice to be a part of a new family! With all boys, John's mom seems to love to have a girl around the house a lot!
I'm really looking forward to starting my own family with me and John. Only 5 months and 4 weeks away, my heart starts pounding a bit just thinking about the excitment and our big day to start the rest of our lives together!
