the most wonderful time of the year.

I really need to up my posting game.  I hate when people only blog once a week and I am officially now one of those people!  It's not fair though, I'm not pregnant and my wedding is over!  I guess I'll just be blogging about school for the next year and a half! 

I'll start off with a picture of Bauer from this week...he's such a trip.



Anywho...today was an awesome winter day :)  This morning Chris and I went to his Grandma's house to drop off some village pieces and she made us the most AMAZING breakfast!  I can still taste it when I think about it.  First, was the french toast, but this was not made with regular white bread like I would usually make it.  No, no, no she made it with a loaf of french bread that was cut into one inch thick slices.  Oh.  My.  God.  It was amazinggg.  THEN as if that isn't good enough by itself she had homemade blueberry topping.  HOLY COW.  I wanted to drink the stuff.  She also made awesome spiced apples that I devoured, grits (which I've never had before, but they were pretty good..they taste like rice), sausage, and applie cidar/coffee.  Yum yum yum.  I think Chris and I might try to recreate some of the dishes for dinner this week! :)  So now that I have all of you drooling I will move on to the next part of our day.  After our gourmet breakfast we headed to Tom Leonards to get our Christmas tree!  They have really great trees and we had great success last year there, so we revisited this year!  We had our tree picked out and were in line in about 10 minutes. 

It smelled SO good with all the trees and wreaths.

 Waiting for the guy to tie our tree down!

Chris didn't want his picture taken :)

I was so scared in was going to fall on the way home.

He's so cute ;)

Getting our tree ready!

It is huuuuge and very heavy!


WARNING:  The next 3 pictures have nothing to do with the tree.   I can't help it; he's too cute!




Ok, back to the tree decorating :)

 Starting to put on the lights!!

 Ok, I lied...one more picture of Bauer 'helping' us decorate!

 One of the strands went out half way through, but don't worry Mr. Fix It fixed it!!

Our final tree!  It is huge and beautiful and smells awesome!

Merry Christmas!
