Christmas in Pittsburgh
Dale, freshly groomed, looking like a hot Christmas mess.
Our Christmas celebration this year was nice and low key. To celebrate the holidays, we spent time cooking some wonderful meals including roasting duck and enjoying some fresh shrimp that my parents brought back from Florida. Both were absolutely delicious. We also went of plenty of walks and worked a little around the house, as we always do when my parents visit. Dale added another level of chaos as one would assume. The pup was crazy and enjoyed helping us unwrap the presents on Christmas morning.
Red Solo Cups for Mom and Dad!
GARTH! YES.
Ohhh Thank you for your help dale.
We had a few simple gifts for one another. My parents got me the Garth Brooks box set, which I've watched already like 5 times. Oh my gosh, his concert at the Wynn is better than I ever could have imagined. I remember when I heard he was coming out of retirement to play in Vegas, I emailed Joel to ask about the tickets. He called me out on wasting time and money, hhaha, see below.

Haha, so that pretty much settled that. But luckily I got to watch the concert in the comfort of my living room, and Paul finally got to use his surround sound! It was a great time in Pittsburgh, and I'm so happy that they came out to visit!
