My favorite Alicia memory was spending time with her this past Christmas. We were scheduled to fly back to Minnesota the day before Christmas Eve, but snow in the Chicago area canceled our flight and didn't get us home until Christmas Day.
As a result, I spent my first Christmas Eve away from my family. Needless to say, we were both disappointed. But Alicia and I decided to make the most of it. We went out for barbecue at a local restaurant and stuffed ourselves fat. Because of the proximity to Christmas, we had the restaurant all to ourselves. We then rented the last few episodes of a series we had been watching for a month (The Wire). It was a lot of fun.
Most importantly, though, I got to feel what it was like to spend a holiday with my new family.
