It's beginning to look a lot like Christams....

I'm starting to feel like a slacker because I haven't posted for two weeks now. Victory and I are just hanging out and enjoying life. We hit the six month mark at the end of November. Yay for us! We appropriately celebrated by going to a friend's wedding reception where we remembered our special day.
I just have to make a special note, that last weekend we went roller skating. I love roller skating, I always have. There is nothing like gliding by with the wind in your hair. MMMmm I love it! And I love that I have a wonderful husband who is such a great sport about it. I had a past boyfriend who came with me but sat on the bench the whole time claiming to have weak ankles. Can we say "WHIMP"? (I guess that wasn't very nice...I'll give him credit of even coming with me.) However, that experience made truly appreciate having a husband who will enjoy this favorite pastime with me.
Here are some pictures of Victory and I's first Christmas Tree Shopping.
This is us in the car before we ventured out to the tree farm. I'm super excited. I love getting Christmas trees!
Me amongst all the lynched trees. We were to big of whimps to go out in the woods to cut down our own. So we bought a pre-cut tree.

Our tree fits in the trunk of my car! Oh Little tree, oh Little tree!

Note to self: Never string popcorn and cranberries ever again unless you've got plenty of helpers. We were stringing popocorn and craberries for what seemed like hours...oh wait it was hours and hours!

I'm excited for the Christmas season, I hope you are all enjoying the festivities of the season as well!

Your tree looks very short and fat. Is it really that fat?

Stephanie said...

Oh yeah you look very pretty in the first picture. And you are such a self-picture taker.

You are such a cute couple, gosh! What a fun experience, getting a tree. You chose the same blog wallpaper as myself. Great minds think alike.

I love your tree! its small but soo full and just looks adorable! I can't believe you guys strung popcorn and cranberries, very impressive. Are you guys going to come out to utah over the holidays? If you are I hope we'll get to see you!

How cute,it probably wouldn't look so small if Victory wasn't standing by it!!!
I made a note to myself the first year we were married, we did the same dumb thing only my cranberries were frozen and they dripped red juice as they thawed!!!
I still have stains on my tree skirt to remind me to never do that again.

Cecilia dear, no one will be able to take your place, although he does try...it's a little hard because of his height to get my arm over his head. I won't say his name but I think you came roller skating with us in Logan.

How fun Alissa! I remember going ice skating with you and being a wimp too :) I dont' think I sat down, but I do know that I stayed pretty close to the wall the entire time :) I love the picture of the two of you. It's so cute! You look like a married couple- oh wait, you are! :) Merry Christmas!! I wish I could be there to celebrate with you!
