Christmas!!!

Christmas was so much fun!!! I was so happy that Dalin got home safe from the bowl game Christmas Eve! I had missed him so much!
Let me just say that i LOVE that both of our famlies live in Boise! We got to spend time with both sides on Christmas Eve and Christmas day!!! We are so thankful for all of the stuff we got! We love it all!!! It was so much fun spending our first Christmas together and making our own traditions as a family! We had so much fun playing ROCK BAND, talking to Dalin's little brother TY on his mission, watching movies, eating, and playing on THE NEW PIANO!! I wasn't even sick:) So we had a great Chistmas!! Pictures will come soon! AND IT'S OUR 1 YEAR ANNIVERSARY ON SUNDAY!! TIME SURE DOES FLY! It's been a wonderful year~!

I LOVE CHRISTMAS!!!

Christmas is my 2nd favorite holiday! I love the music, treats, lights, and of giving to others. It makes me feel so happy! Dalin and I decided to pick names of people that needed help getting christmas presents for our Christmas tradition; and let me tell ya, it is so worth it! We had so much fun shopping for the kids names that we picked, and it was so much fun giving them away. It made me feel so good inside.
Another tradition that we are going to do (it comes from his family) is make a Christmas Train every year and give it to someone as a gift. This was my first year making these with his family and THEY WERE SO MUCH FUN!!! Way better than gingerbread houses! Here are some pictures of us making them and the final product:)



I also love all the decorations that come with Christmas time!! With living in an Apt it is kind of hard to decorate such a little place, but we did our best:) And I love it!!

This is our entertainment center decoarted so cute! love the christmas lights:)

And this is our cute white tree, only kind of decorated (whoops). But i told Dalin that next year we are starting a tradition of having a real tree because I love the smell of them!! And i told him that i want to go and cut one down:) And of course, he agreed with me, so I can't wait to start that tradition next year:)
And this is one of the cutest christmas treats that Misty (a girl at my work) made! I loved them and am going to make them next year! So cute and so yummy!
