Candle Light Breakfast!

Today is our three year anniversary!!!!

Because we decided to get married in December... every year we get to celebrate our anniversary, Nate's birthday, and Christmas all within a couple of weeks of each other! Which then pretty much leaves very little to celebrate for the rest of the year! But what can you do, what is done is done!
Another thing we've noticed is that every year finals always seem to mess up our anniversary! Today I spent the evening in the lovely testing center cursing my professor for giving us so much to study for one test! But I had anticipated that this is how the night would go... so this morning I made breakfast to celebrate the big three years!! It was still dark out so I turned on the Christmas tree lights and set out some candles! That was our romantic breakfast! But with the table set all nice and the candles lit we sure didn't fit the part having our PJs on, hair a mess and morning breath! But I guess after three years that works! And what a great three years its been!
Nate made dinner for me, which I had to heat up because I got home so late. And he bought me my favorite ice cream! We also have plans for the weekend to officially celebrate it but you've got to actually do something the day of right?! Well we tried to anyways!!

Here is a few pictures from the big day!

THE CHRISTMAS SEASON IS HERE!

Its that time of year! I love Christmas and I sure wish my house could look like this one! Nate sent me this video in an email and I thought it was pretty cool! So to kick off the Christmas season I thought I would post it! Enjoy!!

We had a nice trip to AZ for Thanksgiving, really enjoying the good weather and good company. But I didn't take any pictures! My camera was low on batteries and I hate having people hold that pose while I reopen it to get one good picture just in time for it to die again! So instead of pictures I'll just mention a few highlights of the trip:

A definite highlight was when Tammy almost set Grandma's kitchen on fire... twice in one night! Not to worry though, Grandma was quick with the baking soda to put it out!

Putting together a puzzle.... crazy I know that this would make a highlight moment but you should have seen how many of us were surrounding that table fighting to get the last piece in! Nothing else mattered but finishing that puzzle! They can get addicting!

Watching Bolt with all the kids!

Seeing Ashley Shanghai twice in one game! Way to go Ashley!

Happy late Thanksgiving to everyone but more importantly the Christmas season is here!
