This Christmas Eve was different than ever before because my sister wasn't there. She and her fiance decided to come down on Christmas day instead, so we went to visit my grandparents and cousins without her.


First time EVER without Kimberly in the shot :(


My first camera I ever owned I recieved for Christmas 3 years ago. I got a MUCH better one a year later, and this year I have my most badass camera yet. Though it is technically a Birthday/Christmas present that I've had since the end of October.

On Christmas day, Kimberly&Caleb, and my aunt Nancy and her family came over. Mom made amazing chili for everyone.
This is me, LILYTHEMOP, and Caleb.
