Dinner with Family
It's been a while since I missed Christmas dinner with the family.
It was good this weekend, to have Christmas with Jim. We've started to form our own family tradition with each other. It's a big deal, and yet we seamlessly flowed into it. We shared tokens of affection with each other. We had delicious food together, played music we love, we sat in quiet together and read on the couch and watched the icicle lights blink in the living room.
We saw "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" a couple hours after I'd finished the book. We also enjoyed "Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol."
We enjoyed chocolate coffee from my cousin, and chai in our newly gifted tea set at candlelight from freshly made tapers of vanilla almond. Outrageous.
It was a rich and lovely Christmas weekend. And now to work for a couple days to round out the year.
It seems we've found a new way to celebrate the holidays: a dance of activity around our love. And while we were here up north, we had an opportunity to dine with his family, and spend time with my godson. His dad was a gentleman, and turns out quite a scholar. We got along well. We're surrounded by a lot of familial love and support for our budding relationship, for which we are grateful.
