Brinkmas

 It was a pretty strange Christmas this year. The holiday is usually about spending time with family and getting together, unfortunately with this whole pandemic thing going on, that has a way of keeping us apart! We decided as a family that we would not do a big group get together, instead Mema and Papa would come and visit us at our place.

A couple days before Christmas we welcomed my parents over to celebrate the holiday and do a little bit of gift giving! Neither Mema nor Diana wanted to spend the day preparing a meal, so instead we opted for a meal from Vitale's. Everyone likes Italian food, right? We decided to eat first before opening any presents, much to Ledger's chagrin! He really struggled with having the patience to wait, but he got through it, miraculously! When it was finally time, he tore them open so quickly it was a blur! He got some fun gifts that he was excited to tear into immediately and play with- certainly a happy boy! It was really great to be able to spend a bit of time with my parents and just to see each other- something we haven't been able to do much of over these past months.
