Our First Christmas

by JM

heart.jpgHello everyone. I hope you had a lovely holiday.

I had a lovely quiet day with my husband exchanging presents, eating yummy food, and enjoying each other’s company. My husband learned that I really am telling the truth when I say I absolutely love office supplies and am very happy receiving them on special occasions.

This Christmas was neither our first as a couple nor our first together physically. However, this Christmas was our first as a married couple.

Thinking about that, I remembered back to our first Christmas together physically and all the awkwardness caused by it. It was a fun Christmas and exciting because we got to give each other gifts for the first time.

I regard that as my worst gift giving season. I was thankful my husband’s birthday is in January because I felt more comfortable and did a better job of getting him nice things I thought he would like instead of what people were saying I ’should’ get him.

(Let’s just say we ended up both getting each other massagers, which was funny, but there was a sexy nightie present that didn’t quite work out as planned.)

Do you have any ‘our first Christmas’ funny, embarrassing, or sweet stories?

You can email me all your first Christmas together stories (be it this past Christmas or many Christmases ago) and I’ll post them up here on site. Share the good, bad, and ugly and whatever else you care to share.

If you have just a little snippet to share, post a comment and let us know!
