Christmas Preparations!

With ten days until Christmas Eve, and nine until we fly to Dallas, it’s hard to keep my mind on my work and school. Work is dead and as for my class… I have to write a comparison article on two different articles on how to keep HR from becoming obsolete. I don’t care about HR. At all. So it’s hard to feign interest in such a mundane subject… that being said, I am really enjoying the class (and am so excited to be done this weekend!).

I have most of my little Christmas cards sent out (with a picture of us from our wedding day), most of our Christmas shopping done (just need a couple more gift cards), and Tylers gifts all picked out and most of them wrapped! I think we’re doing pretty good this year =)  

But what I’m MOST excited about it our Christmas tree, all the pretty wrapped gifts beneath the tree, going to Williamsburg to look at the lights and finish our Christmas shopping (on the list, antique store, outlet store, and the Christmas stores in Colonial Williamsburg), Ice skating at the outdoor rink at the mall, and more hot chocolate (with pieces of broken candy cane). The peppermint hot chocolate is my new absolute favorite and I’ve had it already twice this week… both my hubby and I are addicted.  This year has been so dramatic that it seems like Tyler and I have been together for so much longer… it’s INSANE to think that we started (kinda, not officially) dating last year at this time. I told him the other day, “I’ve been crazy about you for one year now!” He laughed and hugged me =)

His mom sent us an ornament before Thanksgiving for our tree that says “Our First Chirstmas”, and Tyler stuck our rings in the tree beside it and tooks a picture… It’s so darling
