It has been so exciting preparing for our first Christmas together! I've had a lot of fun decorating the apartment and John has actually gotten into it too (albeit he did so by shopping at the Dollar Tree to contribute to the decorations, but that's not at all surprising). We drove about an hour north to a Christmas tree farm to cut down our tree and had a bit of an ordeal. We got there and were very excited to find our tree. About 5 minutes after we got there it started to rain - hard. Thank goodness we had an umbrella in the car, which John ran to get, because we were literally trying to hide our heads inside the trees!

Our tree!
After getting the tree up we put the lights on and finished decorating the rest of the apartment - we even put lights on the balcony. We're still hoping for a white Christmas - we got snow today and it's snowing now so we just may get one. It is freeeezing cold when I leave work - we're definitely not in South Carolina anymore!
We've started to get Christmas cards!

We sent our Christmas cards over the weekend - this is the picture we used. Can't believe Christmas is just around the corner!
