Almost Christmas Eve!

So here we sit the day before Christmas eve. It is raining on my perfect snow and our dog has to have knee surgery. I guess these things are what memories are made of. Hopefully the temperature will soon drop again and Annie's ACL will heal quickly. However, we soon get to fill the stockings I made for our first Christmas living out of sin. And have two fun filled days of family and friends to come! We hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas as well. On another note, Jeremy has been busily adding photos to our photo site. And yes, some are from the wedding! Hurray, wedding pictures at last! Click HERE or the link to the right to check them out.

Snow for Christmas

I was getting concerned with the strange start winter had this year it might be an ugly Christmas. Once again the snow held up its end of the deal. After days of snow we have close to 2 feet in the front yard! Now it's time to finish up the decorating, make some cookies and wrap the gifts! Oh, and study for my final exam on Monday... But I'm in denial of that.

Oh Christmas Tree

Finally, last weekend (after Jeremy's week long trip to the desert, our weekend getaway to Eielson, followed by my week long trip to the simulator in Indiana) Jeremy, Annie and I loaded into the truck and headed to the base for some Christmas tree hunting. We found our best tree yet... however, it was about 18 feet tall. Once the dead bottom and the second top were cut off it was a perfect fit for our little living room. After 4 years of searching and heart break over tree toppers that were ugly on arrival or out of stock we finally found one I am quite fond of at Target. Hurray!
