Our first Christmas Eve as a married couple

It's been quite an eventful week for us. We celebrated our first Christmas together as a married couple which was exciting and also our first Christmas away from our families which was kind of sad. Christmas Eve, we went to church together at St. Andrew's church downtown. It was also the first time that we have tried riding together on my scooter. Nick was terrified riding on the back but has a new confidence in my driving skills. He is also very motivated to get his license now. The church is completely pink on the outside and even had pink trim on the inside. It was a lovely service. After church we came back home for our first Christmas dinner together. We both come from unique traditions, the Herefords having homemade pizza on Christmas  and the Whelpley family making Roast Beef subs on Christmas Eve, so being that a successful marriage takes compromise, we (Nick) made Pizza Subs! They were quite delicious and don't think we will be waiting another 12 months to make them again. We decided to forgo the commercial Christmas this year, but Nick bought me a box of truffles, he's so thoughtful!! I also had to include a picture of our neighbor's house as they went all out with the decorations.
