Today was Christmas. We woke up and had our cinnamon rolls for breakfast while we opened our stockings. Stockings were rather light this time around because neither Allison nor I thought much beyond what to put in the kids’ stockings. We overdid it with the the kids, but for us, not so much. I even commandeered some of the kids items for our stockings so they wouldn’t be so bare. That is okay because there were some big deal things coming. Overall the presents were fewer to open but more to experience this year. We’re going to Disney and two days in the parks is a pretty big gift. We also are going to a couple of comedy shows in the coming year. Allison and I are going to see Nate Bargatze in August and the whole family is going to see Josh Johnson in March. Needless to say budgets for gifts went out the window. This will be the kids’ first live comedy show. They enjoy Josh’s comedy on Tik Tok and so do we so we’re very excited to see him live.

After we had virtual christmas with Mimi and Dano we drove to the Cape for 12:30 and family lunch there. Tara and Erik were there along with my parents. Shelby and her family would be coming tomorrow. We enjoyed lunch and then went for a walk along the beach. I kept going and walked up Great Bay and down Marivista to get in my 10,000 daily steps. On the way home I had perfect timing for the sunset along Bristol Beach. I watched the sunset and took a ton of shots of the way the light and clouds were reflecting on the water.

We opened presents for a little while that night and then watched Fred Claus before bed. I hadn’t seen it in a while. Still funny.
