Lovin' the Season :)

This season has been very busy for us...Josh and I celebrated our THREE month anniversary on the 2nd (time flies!), Josh finished school for the semester and passed his state exam and did awesome (whoo!), and we also got to speak in sacrament on Charity!...we are mostly having a lot of fun in between our activities! This will be kind of a long post, but mainly with pics cause that's what I love best...Here's to DECEMBER!

TREE!!!
I have never gotten a real tree before, so this year because our apartment is so small, temporary etc., and we didn't want to wait til after Christmas to buy a fake one, we got a real tree! We went to the lot on the corner of 90th and State.







Here are the guys that helped us, they even gave us a deal cause it was our first tree...I would definitely recommend this place and we will probably (hopefully) go there again!



Did u know that tree's can come in cans? Then they put rocks in it to hold it up...We loved the idea...









First Tree :) Thanks to Target for cute, cheap decorations...

Temple
Josh and I have been busy making our pretty much weekly trips to the temple. We've realized how much more the temple means to us when we go more. This last week we attended the Oquirrh Mountain Temple because Jordan River is currently closed and because we wanted to try something new. It was beautiful. Always thankful for the time I have to spend with Josh here! We look forward to it! If you ever want to go, let us know!





GiNgErBReAd HoUsE!
At the beginning of the month, we had a few friends over to our place for pizza and a Christmas movie. We ended up making a Gingerbread house after we came up with all the stuff for it! So fun...









Josh completing the Roof...Thanks to Britt and Ben for much of the house ingredients.



Finished house with a snowman and gingerbread man :)



Cute Blake & Jenny...We love hanging out with these guys!



Merry Christmas...Love, US :)
