Christmas Day(s) 2012

So here at Walt Disney World, Christmas is not a holiday, but a reason to be at work.  While hundreds of thousands of people clammed into the parks to see Mickey and Minnie don festive clothes and decorate Christmas trees, my Honeybunches worked.  And not just worked like a normal week, but WORKED.   Too many hours to count really, but it is what it is.  Hopefully, we wont have to many repeat holidays similar to this past one.  
I think that all of this time at work just made the holiday seem more empty for me.  I mean, for the most part, we had a glorious time and made some spectacular memories, but I feel like something was definitely missing.  Whether that was Blake, family, or snow...I guess I'll never know the answer to that.  But as said above, despite all the hours labored and hours spent alone, it was still a pleasant holiday and definitely leaves room for improvement for this coming season.  We already have some hope cause Blake's parents intend to spend Christmas this next December.  Truly leaves something to look forward too.
Blake worked Christmas Eve until late and then all day Christmas Day.  So we spent Christmas in three parts.  Let me explain...

PHASE ONE: Santa Claus and Reindeers Visit




 


PHASE TWO: Family Traditions and Christ Centered Lesson

Only Picture I got that night. Forgot to charge the camera from the day before.  Silly me<3 br="">
 PHASE THREE: Christmas with friends








After presents and dinner on the second Christmas Day, we went to Celebration to experience a little cold weather and some 'snowfall'.  It was a blast and probably the best part of the day! 
 




The season really turned out to be quite enjoyable and the way that we celebrated made the magic linger just a little longer which I enjoyed immensely.  
Until next year, Merry Christmas To All!!!
