Happy Holidays!!

So this post has been in the works for several weeks now! I finally finished my final project and I wanted to take a break before a took a stab at studying for my finals.
So, I think this last Thanksgiving was one of my favorites. I got to spend 6 days straight with my amazing husband. It was wonderful, we had just finished some busy and stressful weeks at school and a long cozy break was very welcome. We started our break with an early bird trip to the movie theater to see Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows!! And let me tell you...we weren't disappointed! We went to the gym a couple times and swam and ran. I love working out with Max, his very motivating and a patient trainer!
We made a delicious meal just for two, actually we made enough for a small army.
We ate a bunch and enjoyed ourselves thoroughly!
After dinner we decided we needed to move our bodies a little bit before eating our homemade apple pie. so we put up Christmas lights. We are really proud of our simple decorations. We feel so festive.
I don't really remember why he's dressed up here. ??
On Black Friday we got more Christmas lights and decorated a little more

At the end of the break we had a little blizzard. Here's my husband working hard on a Sunday morning to clear our driveway.

We also got a fake Christmas tree on black Friday. We got a steal of a deal. I know it's somewhat blasphemous for two born and raised Oregonians to have a fake tree but we just figured we will use it until we finish our college years then when we're back in Oregon we will get a real one. Besides, we're not even going to be here for Christmas.


Happy Holidays!

  1. We have that angel ornament too. I love the lights and we have a fake tree too. We figured it's cheaper to have a fake tree then a real one at least for the time being.
