Merry Christmas! What?

Ok, ok, I know it's a bit late for a Christmas blog, but given we Masons kinda missed Christmas this year (we really did! I -Lindsey- was sick on the couch with something akin to flu and a sinus infection and December was a crazy month of traveling/high stress for our family!).  So, since we missed Christmas . . . this is our Christmas contribution that should make you want to hum "Deck the Halls" even though it's nearly February. Sorry :)

I was putting away our Christmas decorations we never put up this year and had the thought, "How many Christmases have Joseph and I celebrated together?" I counted. I had to do the math again (and anyone who knows me know math is NOT my gifting) and I was right: six years! 2002 - 2007.  It just seemed way more than I would have guessed off the top of my head. Six years -- At least we have 6 Christmas pictures together from each of those years, and just for kicks I thought I'd see if we still had them all, and we do! So for your viewing pleasure: the Mason family from before it was the Mason family to now it being a family of 3 1/2 people!

What a fun stroll down memory lane!! And I have to say that the second I saw you wearing a turtleneck in pic #2, I had to wonder if there was another specific reason for your choice in clothing, seeing as how you were newly engaged and all . . .
Ha!

How fun! I'm glad we're on the same schedule so you can tell me how long Nathan and I have been together :).
Joyeux Noel!

Micaiah, KT

I don't know what you're talking about! It just so happens that I like to wear turtlenecks! :)
