Christmas 2012

I hope everyone is enjoying the holiday season! Whether you celebrate Christmas or not, here are some interesting statistics.

Because it's still a little early to have complete and accurate statistics for 2012, most of these numbers are for the year of 2011. Still very interesting to look at!


Christmas Spending by the Numbers

 Here are a few pictures from our Christmas week. 

This is my nephew and he was a little sleepy I guess.
As you will notice, I did grow out a mustache for a few days. 
Yes I know it's a little pathetic and patchy, but worth a try.


Me and my beautiful, 35-week pregnant wife spent Christmas in Utah this year and had a great time with her family.



We shared these two Jones Sodas and they are very good. If you haven't had one before, give them a try. You can submit photos and design a label on their website and if they like your photo and label design they will use it! Pretty cool idea.

We were in the process of moving into a townhouse during the Christmas week so we didn't have time to set up a tree like usual. We decided to tie a few green ribbons on our living room corner decoration and call it good. 


After opening presents at our house, we headed over to the in-laws house to open a few more presents. 


It was a white Christmas this year. I'm an Arizona boy and never shoveled snow growing up. I woke up to about 10" of snow and got to bust out my new snow shovel. 


What is your favorite part of the holiday season?

    Great post Carl, loving the family photos.
    For me, the Christmas period is all about family time.
    Slowing down, getting together with relatives and enjoying what's really important in life. :-)
