Christmas is watching Charlie Brown Christmas with your husband while you eat grilled cheese for lunch.Hounding your mom for recipes like cinnamon rolls and rocky road to make your apartment feel like home.
Ringing bells like crazy with your sunbeams at church while they belt out "Stars Were Gleaming"
Insisting that Christopher stay away from the guest room, laundry room, and entry way cupboard where unwrapped gifts are hiding. Since these place cover major square footage in our apartment, he is getting anxious for me to buy some wrapping paper.
Searching far and wide for Bendaroos and finally finding them on Amazon where they were previously sold out. Yay for having such great sisters to give presents to!
Texts from Jessica about Christmas songs I miss hearing so much at the MTC. :)
Magnolia's grill--the famous restaurant here in NC where Christopher and I are going for dinner on the night of our little Christmas party.
Appreciating the fact that Christopher gets enough time off from school that we can spend so much time with our families this year. We can't wait to see everyone.
Setting up and decorating a Christmas tree in a beautiful new apartment. When I turn on the lights every night it doesn't matter that the temperature hit 75 during the day. It feels like Christmas is really here!
A close-up of some of our decorations for Mom. :)

ReplyDeleteCan't wait for you to get to Conneticut.
Your tree looks awesome! And I love your Christmas list. The sunbeams ringing bells made me smile.
ReplyDeleteThose little red birds are darling!
I'm so glad your European birds are on your tree! Miss, it's seriously so pretty.
ReplyDeleteAnd seriously NOT funny about the MTC Christmas songs (however, we changed from 100.3 to 106.5, so it opened up a whole new slew of songs, Hallelujah!)
Ahh! I miss you and Chris!
