Christmas Traditions

I think one of the best things about the holiday season is family traditions. I look forward to all of traditions every single year. One of the greatest things about being married is gaining a whole bunch of new family traditions. Trevors family has alot of fun family traditions, especially around the holidays, that we both look forward to every year.

One of the traditions that Trevors family does is frosting sugar cookies around Christmas time. On Sunday we all got together at Trevors parents house had dinner, frosted sugar cookies, and watched a movie. It sure was fun and I loved watching my adorable husband act like a little kid again!

Trevor started out frosting cookies really well. His cookies looked normal and actually really good.

How Trevor started out

However, after a couple of cookies Trevor quickly lost interst in frosting cookies and started making the most insane characters and other such things. Treovr made a Patrick cookie, a gingerbread man wearing a tux, and other such things as that.

We had such a fun time frosting sugar cookies and cannot wait for this weeked and all the fun festivities that we have planned for the Christmas weekend. Its going to be a blast thats for sure!

Our Favorite Time of the Year

I can't wait for Christmas to get here!! This is by far our favorite time of the year!! Everything about this holiday season is just the best! I love that everywhere you go it feels like Christmas time. I also love putting up all of our Christmas decorations in our home and bring the holiday spirit into our home! Christmas is will be here soon. I only wish that Christmas were tomorrow! There are so many many things I am excited for.

Trevor and I one Saturday night put up our Christmas tree and all the decorations throughout our home. I am so happy that Trevor is willing to help me put everything up and carry everything that is too heavy for me. Haha We had fun putting everything up together!

I will be so sad when I have to put away all of our Christmas decorations! We are enjoying the holiday season as we know it will soon be over! We hope you all enjoy your holiday season as well!

Thanksgiving Day

Me and Trevor had a really good Thanksgiving!! We love the holidays and everything that comes with them. We also love being able to spend the entire day together without school or work getting in the way. We started off the day by eating lunch at my moms house, with all of my aunts, uncles, and cousins.  I love spending time with my family and all the fun we have together. Its always such a blast!

Later that afternoon we went to Trevors parents house to eat dinner with his entire family. It was all such good food. We for sure did not go hungry one single bit the entire day! After we ate dinner a bunch of us started playing Michael Jackson dancing on the Xbox Kinect. I love this game and watching everyone dance to it. I especially love watching Trevor play it. Let me be the first to state that my dear wonderful husband tries so hard at these types of dancing games...  BUT he has zero rhythm!! I don't think these pictures do his non-dancing skills justice.

I love his face in this picture!! I love this boy!

Bustin it to Michael Jackson

I always have to give him a hard time about it, but I love that even though he knows he has no rhythm he is still up to dancing with everyone and being right in the middle of all the fun. We love being able to spend our days with family and all of the fun we always have!

I love Thanksgiving and being able to reflect on all of the things I am thankful for. I am thankful for my wonderful husband and all the fun times that we have together! I am thankful for both of our families! I am thankful for the gospel and that me and Trevor get to be together for eternity!

I love the holidays and can't beleive they are already half over. We are trying to enjoy every single minute of them as we know they go by oh so quickly.
