5 years today

Today is our 5 year anniversary. I can't believe. The last 5 years have absolutely flown by. Every day I am struck by what an amazing man I am married to. To share my life with someone who loves the Lord, loves me and loves life...nothing better! We have so much fun. When your are married to your best friend every day is an adventure. There is no one else I would rather walk the journey of life with. So with this short but sweet post I want to tell everyone how thankful I am that God brought the two of us together as husband and wife 5 short years ago. I look forward to the next five, I know they will be amazing!

Presents already???

I actually opened one of my Christmas presents yesterday! I know, super early right? We have had a ton of snow these days and Micah and I wanted to get out and enjoy it yesterday. Since he had been gone for a few days he had missed it all until yesterday. Anyways, we wanted to go for a walk but I told him I couldn't go for very long because I didn't have the right kind of shoes....you know boots of some sort. I have been wanting a pair of wellies (rubber boots) for a while now but have not bought them because I know that it was a possible Christmas present. So as I was telling Micah I couldn't go for a walk with him he decided it was time for me to open a present. So lucky me, I did! And guess what?? Wellies!! Super cute white and black wellies. In the states rubber boots are not that popular, but here they are super popular. I have been wanting them for soooo long. Bless Micah's heart:). So I opened a present early and now I can enjoy it in the snow. I will not be opening ANY more until Christmas day.

Christmas is in the air

I don't know about you guys but this holiday season has been busy! I am off to my second cookie exchange this week tonight. Fortunately this is a cookie exchange that includes husbands so Micah is coming. Micah has been gone the last few days and wasn't able to come home because of a winter storm that came in. It is nice to have him back home with me. I am making peanut butter balls today for the exchange because I can't make cookies to save my life and Micah really likes them. Who doesn't? It's chocolate and peanut butter. Two of the greatest things on earth.

With that, how are you all doing? Are you enjoying the holiday season? We are. My number one goal this December is to take it day by day. Every December comes and goes and I end up thinking, "where did it go?" This year will not be that way. I am determined to take every day and enjoy it for whatever it brings. Hopefully all of you will also take time to enjoy this wonderful time of year.
