Christmas

Christmas is my favorite holiday! I love the music, food, family and of course, presents. I usually like to start getting into the Christmas spirit in November. But because we were so busy with our last trip I didn't have time to decorate, put on christmas music, or even wrap presents! We only spent 3 weeks on California before returning to Utah for the holidays, and with finals, we decided it was best to do a low-key Christmas. I put up a little tree and we bought ourselves presents which we opened before we came out to Utah.

Once in Utah it wasn't hard to get into the Christmas spirit. We have been staying at my in laws house which they decorate beautifully every year. In addition to the lights on the exterior, my mother in law has about 10 Christmas trees and dozens of nativities, stained glass stars, and other decorations that I love.

The last couple weeks we have been in Utah have been packed full if Christmas parties with friends and family. It has been fun and we have enjoyed spending the holidays with the people we love.
