Kelly and a Cold

Current Mood:
CC is listening to: Deck the Halls--Mormon Tabernacle Choir (A Christmas Album)

One of the best things about being married is that you get to establish your own holiday traditions :-). Don't get me wrong, I love all the Christmas traditions I grew up with, but now's the chance we get to make our own :-).

It makes it kind of funny that Steve and I didn't really think it through. In households all around the country, December 24 must be one of the more hectic days of the season. "Lazy" would not be the label for the day :-). What did Steve and I do?

Let's see... woke up... I made Steve pancakes for breakfast... then we took a nap (Steve and I are both getting over a cold)... after we woke up Steve got the Scrabble set and we played Scrabble in bed... then we watched "On the Town" starring Gene Kelly and Frank Sinatra... then Steve walked the dogs... then ANOTHER nap... then dinner... then went to bed :-).

Isn't that awful? And the terrible thing about it is Steve and I actually kind of liked it :-). Sure, it sucks that we're getting over a cold on Christmas Eve, but we liked that we had the luxury of just being sick :-).

Maybe next year we'll plan it a little better--maybe have a ham or something to celebrate the day, but I know for sure that I'd like to start a tradition of watching Gene Kelly either on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day :-). Watching Singing in the Rain, strangely enough, makes me happier than watching It's a Wonderful Life or A Christmas Story.
