First Christmas!

Our first Christmas was so much fun. I love Christmas time as it is, but being married made it even more fun. I love everything about Christmas: lights, cards, decorating the tree, wrapping presents, and esp. family time. Rob and I spent Christmas this year in WV with my family. On Christmas Eve we all piled in dad's truck and went looking at all the Christmas lights. Afterward we came home and baked cookies and finished wrapping Christmas gifts. After opening Christmas presents the next morning, we drove 2 hours to my sisters house to open presents with my niece and nephew and have dinner with everyone. Christmas weekend brought all the aunts, uncles, cousins, brothers, and sisters together at our house. (oh yes and 6 puppies and ESPN) So let's just say that the Kimble home was VERY loud, but it was wonderful having everyone together.

The night Rob and I returned to Napa we opened presents with each other. One of my gifts was tickets to see WICKED!! We go this Saturday and I am very excited.

Every year my nephew shops at the Santa store at school. He is very particular about what he wants to get for everyone. Watching everyone open their gift from him is one of my most favorite parts about Christmas. It's exciting to see what thought he put into buying for everyone and how excited he gets to watch us open the gifts. These next few pictures show some of the gifts this year. I love it!!

Christmas was great and the year 2009 was absolutely wonderful. Now I'm ready to see what 2010 brings!!
