Best Day Ever!

He's officially home safe! Thank goodness the winter weather cooperated enough to get him home safe and on time. I will probably be taking a break from blogging so I can spend some quality time with Chris for the short time that he's back in Arizona, plus we have an array of Christmas activities planned in the next few days. Hopefully it will finally feel like Christmastime for the both of us.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

A Little Slow

For everyone who was wondering, I'm back safe and sound. I've simply been too busy getting ready for Chris' return/Christmas to write anything. I have photos from the trip, which was great, but I am in the process of making a video surprise for Chris, so I will post it here when I'm done. It will help to explain all the photos and get a better idea of what he's been up to the last 10 weeks. I've never done one before, so I hope it turns out ok. I'm using iMovie on my mac, so my project for tomorrow night is to create the whole thing before Chris comes home Saturday night. If anyone has used this and has any pointers or tips let me know! I'm guessing I'll have a long Friday night, so hopefully lots of caffeine will help me out :)

A Deer for my Dear

Only two more days until I leave for Virginia to see Chris! Technically in less than 48 hours I am leaving, and in less than 72, I'll be hanging out with him! As you probably can guess, I am very excited. I've been doing a lot of stuff around the house to prepare for his arrival. Unfortunately his arrival has been delayed until the 20th, but nevertheless I am now 99% done with my projects. Below is one of my greatest accomplishments. I guess it wasn't my accomplishment, it was Chris's last November. However...I was the one who picked it up and hung it on the wall. Actually, I didn't even hang it, my dad did, but you get the point. He was very anxious to see it, so I actually had to send him a photo of it all hung up. While it's certainly not every one's dream to have something like this hanging on the wall, I'm no stranger to such decor. In fact, this is nothing compared to my grandparents' house. I will be putting up the rest of my changes to the house little by little, but here's a taste of what's to come. Enjoy and meet Jim Bob, the newest member of our family...
