Christmas Eve #sepia #blackandwhite

I am not even going to crop these pictures, they are that good. Let me set the scene for the day:

It was a beautiful day in the Bay Area. I was able to work remotely on Christmas Eve, so first thing in the morning Rich and I headed to Startbucks for coffee and then I got to work. We planned to head to his grandma's house in the early part of the afternoon with his sister/friend in tow. We pick her up from BART and head on our way. 

Now this is where the story gets good..I was asking about how the holidays at Grandma's house were since I hadn't experienced on yet. We were joking around and basically crying from too much laughter when Rich looks in the rear view mirror and says: "Melissa, are you bleeding?" Sure enough she had made herself laugh so hard we had her laughing so hard that she cracked her lip open and was bleeding! #sepia #blackandwhite Basically, when the three of us get together we are all cry because we laugh and we laugh until we bleed. It truly is the best time.

Anyway, after getting a bit lost due to poor directions and hilarious distractions, we made it safe and sound and in one piece to Grandma's house where we all caught up on life, drank lots of red wine (as you can tell by the above photo) and opened gifts.

It was the perfect way to spend Christmas Eve.
