Every year I also eat too many cookies at Dad's, drink too much coffee so I can stay up late finishing whatever I didn't wrap and then want to take a nap the next day on my mother-in-law's couch after a huge meal.
I finally, finally got through all of my personal holiday photo editing. These are just simple candid shots, nothing fancy - but they tell the story of Christmas ... my Christmas specifically. :)
