Christmas in the Bakken

This was the first Christmas I'd ever had away from my family, and though I was sad to be without them,  we did get to Skype, and ultimately, Christmas alone with my husband was a day for the books. We had a wonderful, indulgent breakfast of eggs, bacon, and mimosas (a Christmas day specialty) and lounged around in our pajamas watching all of our favorite holiday movies under our Christmas tree in a makeshift blanket fort. Some of our choices included Dennis the MenaceErnest Saves Christmas, Elf, Miracle on 34th Street, The Santa Clause, Home Alone... to name just a few!



While we were watching Dennis the Menace, Matt noticed that a particular shot of Dennis' neighbor, the three-year-old who helps him cheat while playing hide-and-seek with the neighbors, Gunther, bared a certain resemblance to Jennifer Aniston. I didn't exactly agree, but its sort of funny nonetheless...


Though our Christmas wasn't what we are used to, I think the day unfolded quite well. Hope your Christmas was as wonderful as ours! Happy Holidays!
