Its beginning to look a lot like Christmas....

The Christmas season is officially here!! My very favorite time of year! It is even more special this year because it is our very first Christmas together!

Brett has been very patient with me, since I tend to go a little overboard when it comes to Christmas...gifts, decorations, etc!  But we are very proud of the finished product! 

This is going to be an amazing holiday season...so much to be thankful for! 

Here is a look at our house all decked out for Christmas!!!

Here Comes the Bride....

LINDSEY & SETH'S WEDDING

Last weekend Brett and I were so lucky to be a part of Lindsey and Seth's big day! Two people who have meant so much to us tied the knot and we got to be there every step of the way! 

Lindsey is the kind of person who puts so much of herself into focusing on others! She is thoughtful selfless, and an incredible friend. Finally a day where it was 100% about Lindsey (oh and Seth too! :)

Everything about the weekend was perfect! The rehearsal dinner, ceremony, reception were beautiful in every way!

Trick or Treat

I have always been a stickler for traditions....no matter how many groans I got from my parents growing up I would always force them to dye easter eggs, bake cookies for Santa, etc. 
Carving pumpkins was no exception and it was always one of my favorites! 

This year Brett and I spend Halloween weekend carving pumpkins...giving out candy and finally getting to see each other! It was the best weekend ever!!

Milo was much more interested in the laundry basket than carving pumpkins!


Just hangin...

My perfect little pumpkin!
