Christmas Shopping

Friday was the first day I have had off since Thanksgiving! It was such a nice day and I got all of my Christmas shopping done I am stoked now i can relax the next couple of weeks before Christmas and not have to worry about making sure I have the right gifts. The hard part now is keeping it all such a secret. I have such a loud mouth and suck and keeping secrets with things i am excited about! I think Jake already has an idea of what is coming his way but he is such a sweet heart and will act surprised no matter what! Paige was lucky enough to come to the mall with my mom and I the line was short so she sat on Santa's lap and asked for a new Nintendo DS game. The lady told me that i could not take pictures but i snuck one in, she was not happy and i saw the dirtiest look ever but hear ya go! My cute little sister with Santa Claus!

Merry Christmas!

Engagement

I love weekends when it snows. It gives me an excuse to stay inside and be lazy all day long. Its the best time to watch movies in your pajamas next to the fire. Or wrap Christmas presents! That's what I did most of the weekend until Sunday night came around it was exactly one year from the night Jake proposed to me! I cant believe its been a full year since the night we got engaged and to think that our 1 year mark is just around the corner blows me away. It feels like we have been together forever but when you think about it in days we are still considered newlyweds and i LOVE IT! gives us an excuse to kiss in public and show people how madly in love we are. ha ha k that sounds kind of cheesy. Anyway Jake proposed at Temple Square my favorite place during Christmas time. So of course we had to go to the same spot and take a picture at the place he proposed. I think its a great tradition to start we both decided that from here on out when Dec 14Th comes around we will be at Temple Square! I love looking back on how much has happened in one year and talking about how we felt that night. Jake and I are so close and keep getting closer everyday we were talking about how nervous he was to ask me I could tell he was nervous he forgot to get on his knee! But I think it wasn't nerves it was anxiety we were both so ready for that day to come we had waited long enough! Jake is my best friend and everyday i wake up next to him and feel like the luckiest girl to have found such an amazing husband! He is the perfect match for me and makes me want to be perfect for him. I love you honey! Thanks for everything!
