Feliz Navidad!

A couple of Saturdays ago Zac had to work and so I went here: the mall. They have this little holiday lane in the back corner of Macy's every year. It's on the second floor and I visit it whenever I'm needing a little Christmas cheer. Don't forget, A Christmas Carol comes out tomorrow. I think it's going to be good, but don't blame me if it's not, I haven't seen it yet obviously.



I did not intentionally skip over Halloween pictures just to get to Christmas faster, honest. I just don't have any taken from my phone and so blogging those ones just takes more work. I'm lazy sometimes, it's true, but I will get to it. In the meantime, time is fleeting away from us as Christmas is fast approaching. I feel so unprepared this year for some reason. Zac and I went and bought our first normal sized Christmas tree. 6.5 feet to be exact. We, no, I was very thrilled about it. I was a nice wife though and made sure we went to In-N-Out afterwards for dinner so he could get just as excited about something too. As soon as we got home we got to work decorating the beautiful new tree that is ours. It fits perfectly in our our new little house. A lot of firsts this Christmas. First time celebrating the holidays in a house. First time we've had an actual tree to put presents under. First time we've been married 4 years on Christmas. Ok, that one's lame, but there really aren't as many firsts as I thought so I had to stretch it a little. This holiday season we will be travelling to California for Thanksgiving and Utah for Christmas. I can't wait!

Wow! Our family puts up the tree the week before Thanksgiving and I thought we were fast. I have seen your blog a few times before. You are welcome to visit ours. I'm glad to see that you are doing so well.

Oh my gosh, your tree is already up?!?! That's awesome! LOVE IT! You can never celebrate Christmas too much!

I SO want to put up my tree now. I'm trying to wait a couple of weeks, but I am thinking to myself... why? Why not put it up tomorrow? So I just might- if I can convince Jon. Thanks for the motivation! Your tree looks great!

Rachel and Todd said...

Oh, Becky, we can't wait to see you two either! I tell Todd almost every night, "I can't wait til we go home for Christmas, and go to the play, and play games, and sled, and eat, and watch movies, and just hang out."

Hopefully he won't cry as much this time! Remember how he cried the whole way home from the airport? Anyway, we're excited to see you.

I love your Christmas tree--stunning. And in a home! Nice.

Your tree looks beautiful, Becky! LOVE it! How fun that you've got it decorated already. You're getting me in mood to do that too! We need to get together. I haven't seen you in so long!

Congrats on your first tree! So fun! I decorated the first weekend in November and it made me think of you. I figured you'd be proud of my obnoxiously early Christmas spirit! :)
