Sweet Mondays!

I had a glorious weekend, largely because of Mrs. Stephanie Waller! We went dress shopping at a lovely boutique. We pretty much had the whole place to ourselves most of the morning, the dresses were all quite exquisite. I will be picking one of them in January when my masha comes to visit.

Sunday was another awesome day, and this time there were 3 Wallers involved!! The more the merrier, really. We had a delicious brunch of breakfast burritos, and some great convo too. Their house is all decorated for Christmas, complete with a tree!

I can't believe we leave for Arizona in 10 days. Those days will be filled with 7 days of work, cleaning, packing, going to the gym (is a MUST, hello eggnog on my thighs), engagement party, volunteer morning, hair appointment, church, more christmas shopping... woof.

Well I better go get to work.

Holiday Prep

But seriously, how do you prepare for the holidays?

I decorated my apartment, even if it is only for my own enjoyment. I have a tiny little artificial christmas tree, even though I have room for a full-sized one. I have garland and wreaths hung all around, and tonight when I was a metropolitan market I even saw mistletoe! For some reason I have an obsession with hanging it in every doorway, and I think it's because I have so many doorways. However the mistletoe was $6/tiny bundle... probably not the most economical decision, especially when one is saving for a luxurious honeymoon.

My skin saw the light of day today, (the first time since Sunday). It. was. GLORIOUS!! It was pouring rain, and apparently there was even thunder in Bremerton today! I didn't hear it so I almost don't believe it.

Bed time now... more later!
