I am all for respecting the pumpkin and the turkey, but yes, our Christmas plans are made. Granted, we have to travel and buying plane tickets ahead of time is a must, I can't believe I'm thinking about Christmas already!
I've been looking at tickets to New Mexico for a while. We decided that for the first time I'd spend Christmas away from my family. The hubs-to-be has a little sister, and with little ones Christmas day is still a really big deal, so my family will celebrate here on the East Coast the week before and be just fine with it. It's hard to believe that I'm old enough to have to choose where I'll be spending my holidays (it's not fun when the families are on opposites sides of the country) but here I am making that choice. It was hard, for sure. But I'm engaged now and definitely don't want to be without him on Christmas. We've never actually spent the holiday together, since our families are all over the map, so this one is a big deal for us. I'm excited, and definitely looking forward to some nicer December weather that what Boston will provide.
The best part is, we got a good deal! Ticket prices were SO high and we weren't sure we were going to be able to make it happen, but today, out of nowhere the ticket prices went WAY down, and now we're booked! :)
But that's so far away! For now I'll focus on my Halloween costume, then my Thanksgiving travels!
