A tradition every year is to make Peppernuts -a Swedish recipe that's been in the family for a long time.

Breakfast date with Jacob. Waffles + ice cream. The rest of the day was pretty crazy...nice to start the day off with just the two of us.

Playing with glitter and paper today. I am also documenting these photos in a little album...got the little album started.  I love documenting life so much...especially life right now.

Loving this song

hello december

Loving that December is here. Loving all the sights and sounds that come with this month and season.  

Last year I did a photo a day and posted here, and want to do the same this year.  I love being able to document this month this way. Makes me appreciate it all the more.  

For me though the Christmas season sorta started the end of November.  

11.29.12

A walk around the park to look at all the pretty lights.  Although the lights were pretty nice to look at, the company I was with was so much better.

11.30.12

A day of shopping then a Christmas concert.  I love anything with music!

12.01.12

Wedding with a friend at a beautiful venue - loved these doors going into the chapel.

12.02.12

Spent the evening putting up the Christmas tree and decorations.  Loved that I got to do it with my guy.  Being able to enjoy Christmas traditions like this with him has been so incredibly special. ♥

12.03.12
Coffee brought to me at work today by Jacob...I love him so much!!  I think it's neat how most coffee places change up the appearance of cups for the season...so festive, and red! Makes drinking coffee so much more fun ♥

One of my favorite songs so far this season is Home for the Holiday by Sugar and The Hi Lows. Love listening to it over and over.  I've been loving finding lots of new tunes to listen to.  Music is one thing I have going pretty much non stop the month of December.  Would not be Christmas without music.


So loving this month so far, and looking forward to the rest of it so very much!

quote

goodbye november

I feel kinda sad that it's the last week of November. Kinda means fall is over and Christmas will soon be here and then the new year.  I think i want to hold on to fall longer because it feels like for the first time I really got to enjoy and savor every moment of it.  It held so many new experiences, adventures, lots of long walks, being outdoors, time with family.... It was the start of a new relationship, a relationship that has been beyond my wildest dreams. 

So grateful for all the past few months have brought - God has been so good to me - I don't deserve one bit of it!  

I know the winter months will be just as good - even better I'm sure, but there's just something inside me that wants to hold onto fall just a bit longer because it's been so special for me!

Today

Two months ago this amazing guy came into my life....he's become the most special person to me over the last two months...become my best friend and companion. I honestly could not imagine my life without him!


Happy birthday Jacob!
Love you so so much♥
