This is the first year that we have spent Christmas without our extended families, just the two of us. Last year we traveled to California for the holidays, and next summer we'll be traveling to both coasts for a month of home leave, so we decided to stay put this year and enjoy a few quite weeks together in Paris. Our apartment has been decorated for Christmas for at least a month, as I'm a huge sucker for the lights and festivities of the season. So this is how we spent the big day. Morning(ish): Santa came! We opened presents, made gingerbread cake, and fired up some hot wine. Afternoon: Watched the Griswold family Christmas Vacation (for me, the first time ever!), and took a walk around the neighborhood for some fresh (cold) air. Evening: Christmas dinner, Moroccan style. Thanks for the placemats, Mom!
