      Same here. I spent mine alone as well. My husband had to go to help his brother who had medical issues. But I am thankful that we had help with rent for this December! It doesn't get easier to spend holidays alone, however I am wanting to change my attitude about it and not let it ruin my joy of Christmas. It's easier said then done for sure! But don't let being alone ruin your Spirit. ❤ Merry Christmas to you.

    This is so cute. I love how Lance & Julia love. I just watched on tv how Nick Lachey gave his wife Vanessa Minnillo the same Cartier bracelet and told her it had a screw on it so it doesn’t come off (or end) just like their love for each other. She has since had a baby girl and they both got teary eyed and said they agreed that now it’ll come off and be given to their daughter when she’s 18 so she can wear a part of her parents with her forever.
