4 months until Christmas

OMG, I was just thinking about our Christmas tree the other day because it'll be our first in our new apartment. The FI thought that I was crazy but we have to figure out where to put it! lol

At least EVERYTHING was different, just not his lack of being there. Anyway you can do that? Have a Christmas at another relatives house/city/country

I was thinking it might be nice to go away for christmas and new years this year...just me and DH especially since my dad died on new years eve so that will be another hard time....new years used to be my favorite holiday...now it has a totally different meaning.....but i don't know how my mom and sis would feel about me being away

That puts a double damper on Christmas/New Years Geralyn. So sorry you are having to deal with this. Would your mom & sis like/be able to go away with you guys?? I think you all should be together during this first year anyway.
