This morning Erik and I woke up and immediately started cleaning. We vacuumed the living room, dining room, and bedroom. We swept the kitchen, laundry room and bathroom. We wiped down the counters and window sills. Started laundry clothes, towels and the bedding. Basically we ran around like chickens with our heads cut off. Hehe
After cleaning we sat down and ate breakfast and then at about 4:30pm we started putting up the Christmas tree. I can't tell you how long I've been waiting to put the tree up, probably before Halloween. I just love the lights and there's no way you can look at a tree and be sad. Tonight was really wonderful because we had Christmas music playing, we were singing and working on getting the tree all dressed up and to make things even better, it was actually chilly outside. We were able to put the windows up and for once Texas felt like winter time(: After all was said and done, we ended the night sad but happy. Our youngest puppy Tate was given to a really great man named Jerry. He was looking for a dog and even though we loved Tate, we knew that Jerry would be a great daddy to Tate. We hope that they can fall in love with each other like we love our other other 2 fur-babies Chief & Brooks. We really want to send a heartfelt thank you to Jerry for taking Tate to a wonderful home!!!
The pictures below are from putting our tree up! The 3rd to last picture with the 2 photos is of ornaments Erik and I have gotten to symbolize each year of our relationship. The left picture is of a chandelier, our 2010 ornament, we got for the start of our relationship May 8 2010. The right picture is our, 2011 ornament, one year engagement anniversary December 23 2011. We are still trying to find a 2012 ornament to symbolize our marriage on May 12 2012. Pinterest had some really great wedding ornament ideas, so maybe I'll do a little DIY wedding ornament-hmmmm....(:
Thank you for letting me share and enjoy!
