On a happier note, as of 3 days ago, it is DECEMBER!! I would have to say that December is probably one of my favorite months. I love snow (Nebraska needs some by the way!), making cookies, anniversary and of course Christmas! This year, I was so happy because I got to decorate two Christmas trees!
The first one I decorated was the one for my house. Now usually, my mom, sister and I would sleep in on Black Friday, then stay cooped up in our house and decorate the tree. This year though we had to wait a little longer. Also, this year we had to decorate our 4 foot tree instead of our 6 foot. We also used to alternate each year between the "kids" tree, and "Mom's" tree. This year we put on my mom's tree and it looks beautiful!
The ornaments on this tree are all my mom's, some from her childhood and some she has bought. I always think her tree is beautiful with the white lights, and white and gold ornaments.
The second tree I decorated is also special to me. This year is the first year my boyfriend is in his own apartment, and we decorated what we are calling "Our First Tree" together <3 Every year for both of our lives we have gotten at least one (for me more like 2 or 3) ornament for Christmas. I love this tradition and I plan on continuing when I have children as well. My parents and grandparents did this so when I had my own tree (or sharing one) we have something to decorate it with. :) I loved every minute decorating this tree with my boyfriend and it was a nice "first" for us.

Well that is it for now. I will have more Christmas posts later, but for now I have some more school stuff to do before break!
