2 months

Mike and I have officially been married for two months today. The past two months with him have been amazing. I don't think a person really realizes how much they love someone else until they are married to them. Mike is the best husband and friend. He treats me like a princess and wants nothing more than to make sure that we are safe and provided for.
I'm so thankful I have him in my life.

CHRISTMAS
I am obsessed with Christmas. I don't know what it is but growing up Christmas was a really important holiday in our family. And I would love to keep that tradition going with my new little family consisting of Mike and I so far. Mike doesn't seem to be as into Christmas as I am yet he still plays along and helps me with the decorations and other stuff. So we decided to get a fake Christmas tree and decorate it with in all silver, blue, and white. Mike doesn't really understand why I wanted to jeep a "theme" of colors but when he goes to my parents house for Christmas I think he'll get it. I personally think it looks beautiful. Growing up we always had real tress but Mike and I decided it would be cheaper and easier to buy a fake one that we could keep for a while. So here it is...It looks better lit up.Traditions....
So I think it is very important to have some Christmas traditions that you do each year so here are a few ideas that we did in my family and some that I would like to start up...

*new pajamas- "santa" always left new pj's in our bedrooms so when we woke up christmas morning we could wear them to open presents in
*read the story of Jesus's birth in the scriptures
*christmas caroling
*baking christmas cooking
*christmas ornaments- every year my mom would get us and ornament the desplayed what we did or accomplished that year. For example in 2003 I graduated from high school so my mom gave me a grauation ornament that year.
*cookies for santa
*letters to santa
*christmas music
*christmas movies
*12 Days of Christmas
